Silkie thread!

[chikincrazee]

HI my son went to his last poultry show for the year..it was the Eastern Iowa Poultry Show in Iowa City..he won BB and RB silkie but his little white silkie pullet Buttons was JR Res Champion Bantam and Champion Featherleg...he was so proud of her as she is one we bred here at home. He was only beaten by a very nice call duck and there were 144 bantams entered in the JR show.

Unfortunately, it's not just buyers. I recently purchased eggs on byc, and paypaled money right at auction close. Haven't heard a thing from the seller, and it's been almost a week! What really sucks, is that I purchased the eggs to put under a broody, now it's probably to late to slide some eggs under her

That's terrible!! Did the seller have a good rating?

Actually yes. Not a huge amount of past listings, but 100% positive feedback? I'm hoping it was just an oversight. My little fanny will just have to hatch me some babies next time.

I'm trying to think of a clever name for a forum dedicated to Silkies.

Any ideas?

I didn't hatch them out my friend sent them to me and they were already a week old.
