I enjoyed meeting you. Sorry I didn't have more time. I enjoy clerking and then had birds to prep, so it makes for a hectic day. Glad you got a companion for the silkie. I ended up taking home the partridge cochin pair. (After vowing to cut back!)

Your question about chickens needing a buddy, seems to be true. I have many different breeds, and when placed in a larger run, they will tend to prefer the company of their own kind. They even segregate themselves according to color.
