Wow those are some beautiful Silkies. How do you'll get such nice pictures? Mine always are moving !!. I have a rooster that is part black, tan, with white tip wings and an iridescent tail feathers ( like my Mallards). He is an odd color but beautiful.

I thought I would post some pictures of my chicks that are 5 1/2 weeks old now. Hope you don't mind. I'm not asking for which looks like a boy or a girl but I have to say that there seems to be some larger bumpy combs on some of these babies. Only time will tell...

LAVENDER



BUFF



PARTRIDGE

PORCELAIN



Wish I could have got a better full body picture of the Lavender but it was squawking like stuck pig and wouldn't hold still long enough.

On silkie cloud nine. I just had 10 silkies given to me on Friday and already have 11 eggs in 2 days, would have had 12 but one of the girls laid on the ramp and it busted. I just wanted to share some pictures of the new girls, no boys and my total is now 24. Gonna flood you all with pictures now. Love my silkies.


The 3 white girls

A broody buff out to eat

I know, not a silkie but she lays and my husband likes her

A nice blue girl, she is molting and lost most of her crest

2 of the white girls with 1 of the black girls

2 buff girls and 2 wheaton based partridge girls

Love this black girls crest

This is the sweetest little girl but she doesn't get around very well by herself. I think I am starting to like the whites. Sorry for all the pictures but I just had to share.

Free silkies? Score!

I agree. I am just getting into breeding and am getting a lot of support and nice birds from people I know so I can get a good start. I will always, if someone asks, let them know where my flock started. Because I appreciate their willingness to help out a newbie with their time, information and birds.

I think if asked, it's not really name dropping, is it?

I agree! Even the Porcelain one has a big comb for the age. I'm guessing at least those two are boys. My 20+ week old boy is still not that developed in comb yet.
