My silkie chicks hatched yesterday and this morning!

Glad to see that they hatched so cute looks like they are splash.You guys are killing me with these adorable chick pictures. I gave in and let my broody have 8 eggs this morning she has been hatching straw for the last week, when this girl goes broody she sits. She is my avatar and hatched 5 chicks in June.

My broodies are the same way. Silkies are stubborn!

Funny she is the only one that has ever gone broody on me all the others drop the egg and just walk off.

Just beautiful babies!! Nothing cuter than seeing new ones out on the grass!!

Thanks everyone for the nice comments.

Again, these two should be the parents to at least 2-3 chicks from the 4.
The one with the ant problem did make it out okay (well, with a little help from me).

I have some of those hens too. They sit on a bunch of nothing.

And there's no convincing them otherwise.

One of my 12 week old Silkies crowed yesterday! I have too many roosters now and I already sold 6 other roosters!!! This Silkie makes 6 roosters I have right now and most of them have to go.




Here are some of the others. And I am worried that the other 2 Silkies may be roosters also.





Here is our new coop. They just moved in on Saturday. We have had ridiculous amounts of rain here all this month because they were supposed to move in weeks ago. Can't put on a metal roof when it is thundering and lightning. But I love the coop that we built. Now after most of the roosters are gone, I will be getting some more Silkies. I want all different colors.

Some of my silkie's 4th and 5th toes are quite fused like this buff, while some are more spaced like this blue. Is one more desirable than the other? Would this buff one have points taken off or not be as perfect as a similar bird with better toe spacing?

I LOVE your coop. So cute! Especially the door!
