She had wry neck a few weeks ago (pixie did too when she was very sick)

She is recovering so well but it's been lots of work.

Silkies are the sweetest girls -- I wasn't going to get any more Silkies but Violet has lived so long I couldn't resist getting her more Silkie companions. We have 4 chickens now (3 Silkies and one 4-year-old Dominique who is surprisingly nice to the 3 Silkies)

Wow!!!! That is impressive, didn’t know silkies can live so long, 10 years is incredible!

This is Tofu, our black silkie, 4 months old. Super sweet, starting to crow and we can’t have roosters here in the city….. but I’m trying to keep him as long as possible until he gets super loud. We will be giving him to a rooster gentleman’s club that’s a sanctuary in our state, which is better then him turning into dinner. But I just wanted to share this cute fluff ball with you guys because parting with him tears will be shed!

The smart people on this thread believe it's a partridge, like the beauties in this screenshot.
