They're addicting. My boyfriend didn't even want chickens and after he got them for me he hinted at wanting more a few times.

You have two silkie chicks? THAT'S IT?! Haha. You have to get more!!!!

I second this!! Get more! Get more! Two is never enough! I thought I'd be ok with 5 silkies HAHAHAHA

Then I got them and fell in love

Suddenly I was plotting to get into showing them and breeding my own stock. What the heck?
Now this is me every morning I wake up and go out to see my babies ~~~~>>>>

In the far off future, most definitely! Right now? Probably not. We rent and we can't stay here forever. When that day comes if we can't find a nice place like this with a yard, keeping 2 chickens indoor is at least feasible. Any more than that and I'd have to rehome them. I wouldn't wanna do that. We are hoping that we'll be able to buy a home when we can no longer live here though. So fingers crossed!

Good luck! Hope you find the home of your dreams for you and your chickens (many someday!). So, are your chickens house chickens? Do you have diapers for them? I would love to keep one or two inside with me, but my little yorkie would try to eat them.

In my experience silkie fluffy butts plus diapers isn't a great thing! Unless you can get the diaper right up and around their vent and manage to not get any fluff in there with it lol Any one use a different style of diaper that works better let me know what it is!! Right now I'm using the ones from crazy k farms.

I <3 them!

They look like nice boys to me from what I can see, I especially like the second one. The lavender split he's a splash too right? What was his breeding? He looks like a lavender to me but since you said split I was wondering... I have some of Bobbi's birds and I love them all. I have two boys from Merlin's Beard so they might be splits as well and a pair that are blue splits and they are lovely!!​
