Hi from Bama!

[Red Barn Farms]

Hi Harley, Raising Silkies will be a fun experience for both you and your twins! Silkies are a very tame and gentle breed. I have two black silkies and they can be rather comical at times! The rooster is actually a sizzle.

from a neighbor in Coffee County. Glad you joined us. Silkies are a great choice! We have several in our flock and they're so much fun. They do go broody at the drop of a hat, though

Good luck

By the way, have you checked out the Alabama thread: https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/29002/alabama
