Lol I was like OMGeeze they are so perfectly aligned and fluffy to have just hatched!!!
@Hinotori where'd you find those?!

It's at a fancier grocery store over in Tacoma callled Metropolitan Market. They are in a few other cities here I know. We go for the huge cheese selection and their deli lunch counter if we are there.

I may have embarrassed my husband when we walked past as I went "Oh look! Silkies!"
 
I can't find my original post in here where I said I was secretly wishing Floof would go broody and I would hide her in the coop behind some clutter so my husband wouldn't find out. Well it happened. My husband knows about it though it's all good. 🤗😊😆Here she is!

Here's the mom of the two satin chicks. She's one of two cochin mix kids I hatched last year. She hatched eggs from another pair of hens, while Poof Poof in the 3rd photo finished hatching the three babies from the last hen and another silkie.

This is one of the chicks she hatched from her sister..I just love the marbled feather pattern she has. DSC_0074.JPG And another from one of General Lee's daughters bred back to him.

Momma and her two hatchlings are in with Lancelot to strengthen the colors..

Hopefully I will get some pullets to eventually put in with King Arthur. This was the first time ever the King left the castle.. The two pullets he's in with had to lure him out.
