I'm not hatching them, but someone else will. I'm sending eggs to @john_wrightson2003 who wants more Silkies. I'm also throwing in a few of my project Crele Orpington eggs, & a mystery egg as a bonus.

Good luck.I just realized I stopped getting notifications from the thread, I was wondering why things got so quiet!
Loving all the cute silkie pictures!
I've had some bad luck with mean silkie roosters in the past. I hope I'll get some nice boys out of the current cockerels I have. They are all 5-7 months old and the more dominant ones are definitely testing to see what they can get away with. I got attacked for the first time a couple days ago when I had to catch one of the hens (she wasn't having it and the cockerel got me with my back turned). He's usually respectful and gives me my space, I didn't give him too hard a time since I believe he was just trying to protect the hen (he's been good since). I'm hoping as I get more into breeding I'll be able to pick only the best-natured male offspring to breed.
My hatching of eggs from my own silkies is being put on hold since I'm just not getting any interest in the 5 current chicks I have available (by spring I should have some better breeding prospects). I am getting a dozen eggs from a show breeder nearby in about a week though so I will get to do one last hatch before spring comes (I am so happy these ones won't be shipped so I'll have a decent chance of getting a good hatch and some nice lines to add to my flock)!![]()
Good luck.
I'll be getting hatching eggs from a Show Quality Silkie Breeder in Ohio next Spring that I Ordered from earlier this year.
I hope I get some girls, I got all boys last hatch from the breeder.Thank you, and good luck with the hatching eggs when they come in spring!![]()
I hope you do, too!I hope I get some girls, I got all boys last hatch from the breeder.
