Thanks, wow pretty!.... I have a new Silkie X... if I post some pics tomorrow + tag you will you help me identify her exact cross?

I'm getting a BLRW (with a straight comb 'defect') roo and breeding him to my EExWyandotte cross birds. Most of my EEs have blue in their feathers somewhere and I'm excited to see what a BLRW will add to my mix!

Haha! Sorry! Check out Appalachia's Homestead on Youtube. They had 7-10 silkies go broody at once!

I would never survive that, three is enough for me!

All the silkies were piled in the corner of the coop and they were on over 30 eggs!

I think they ended up having over half hatch! They split the coop in half and made half for broodies and half for the others. Though the rest were only roosters because all the hens went broody!
