To those who were talking about taping their silkies, I've been told that freezer tape works well. ThT what we are planning on using for our polish. It's not as sticky.

She looks super sweet!

I have Sultans but my rooster doesn't quite like the one in the picture.

What color would you call this girl? My rooster is a splash and my other hen is a splash and all I ever get are splash babies.

If all the eggs have been in for 32 days they are not good. Be very careful when you toss them. I'd put them in a gallon Baggie and then zip it shut. Then put it in another one

What would happen if I breed a splash rooster to a white hen?

The one on the left isn't that washed out or as white as it looks in the picture. They do produce very nice babies, I've just always wondered why I never get anything but splash. Might be time to add another hen or two from another line.

I suppose she just might. I was really looking forward to blue though. I'm not sure color she really is. To me she seems like she's black.

I have a question. I have a splash silkie rooster, a splash silkie hen and a black silkie hen. At least I think she s black, she could be blue. My question is, out of all the eggs I have hatched from that pen I have never gotten a blue chick. Always splash chicks! Any ideas why??

I have a splash silkie hen that has a slightly crooked beak and I still hatch her eggs. So far, knock on wood, her babies have been very beautiful.

:gig I have a newly hatched silkie baby and I now think it's name will be Gizmo!

I would leave it and see what happens. If on day 23 there's nothing then I'd open it and check.[/IMG]

I am in Gray, Maine. So I am not too far from NH. I don't know the sex yet since they are just little ones. But I can meet halfway if you would like.

I have two white silkies that I am going to sell. They are around 2-3 months old. What would be a good price for them?

Aww, how cute!

I think that's what I will do. She's a sweet little girl.

This one is mostly black except the head is brown. The last baby that I saved from her was a splash silkie. She just seems confused after they are hatched.

So I have decided that my little white silkie, Snow, is not a good mommy. She's a great incubator but she did not help her baby. I went to check on her one baby, a mix between a hatchery buff silkie and one if our black hens, and it's in the corner with blood on it! Snow was still just sitting...

BEAUTIFUL!!

I've heard of that happening. Pullets start to sit in the nest a couple times in the day sometimes before they start laying.[/quote Ok. It's very cute to see them with her. Usually she pecks at them and they sleep with the rooster. But I've seen them with her a couple of times. I will have to...
