Silkie thread!

Your chickens are SO CUTE! I LOVE your silkies!!! I bet they are your babies!

Do they have names?
Would you all mind if I posted pictures of my silkies?

Of course, we Silkie people LUV pics! Names? Our oldest Silkie is shy and dainty so she's "Shrinking Violet" and our littlest Black is "Minmae" or "Mini" for short because she is such a little thing! Minmae means Little Pearl and she is our precious little black gem!

I have 4 silkies that are 8 weeks old and oh how I love them. I think people at work think I am crazy because I talk about them so much. I am trying to only talk about them with other chicken lovers.

When they got old enough to go into their house outside they had no idea how to use their ramp so I spent a few days teaching them. What a riot. I felt it was too steep for them so my husband changed the slope and added to it. They caught on quickly and the smallest one loves playing on it. She goes up and down it like a little kid would the stairs. So funny.

Oh, I know how you feel! It is so hard to not talk about them every second! My silkies are almost 12 weeks old and they are so cute and fluffy!!! Today my little girl Chai got her very first bath, lol. She did not enjoy it very much at all!

Oh and I remember those days of teaching my little Silkie girl to use the ramp! Your little girls sound so cute!!!

Hopefully the other eggs are
Goodluck

How old are they ? Has the egg in the pic been incubated , if so on what day are you candling?

What color is the chick in the middle?? I believe this is what I got when I ordered blue or grey.
