My sweet silkie China loves to watch Gordon Ramsay with me. She is the sweetest little thing and she is so smart. She loves her sisters so much and is always singing her egg song when they lay too. She cuddles most with her sister Jessie who in return will snuggle her on the rare days she needs a bath.

They are both so beautiful!! 🥰
 
I got him!

His name is Pewee and he is five months old. I was a bit disappointed because his owner said she got him from a breeder but I am guessing the "breeder" was just a hobby breeder sorta like me. he has a lot of smooth-feathers on his wings and tail. However, he has a very nice crest and a lot of fluff!

He was raised in a house and his three siblings all ended up being boys (what luck!). So it will take a bit of work to get him used to the outdoors. He has never been around girl chickens so I hope he will be polite!

He is SO cuddly and sweet! And he doesn't run away when I put him down, probably because he can't see. I need to trim his crest.


Also, does he have vulture hocks? And if so, is it genetic? (Excuse the dirt on his bum)

He is a cutie! Congratulations! :love
 
First time letting Jane free range with a few of the pullets, we let a few out at a time so I can intervene if there any issues. Unfortunately they cannot free range without close observation because of mongoose which are daytime predators. He wasn’t quite sure what to make of the experience and just stuck around my chair the whole time. He is such a sweetie!😊
