I have googled and cannot find an answer. How many feathers (flight,HaHa,)does a silkie have per wing?

I have a ? My young black/paint boy is a mouth breather. He actually seems lightheaded sometimes. He meanders never gets overly excited and gasps for air after swallowing. He has nothing lodged and is beautifully healthy otherwise. Good weight, good feather, bright eyed, there is an odd lump...

From your mouth to Gods ears! She She She¡

My Peggy Lee American Paint baby¡ I am very excited.

It has to remain blue for showing. I have a lovely roo with proper color ect.........He has 6 toes! Its always something!

As uniform on his neck and tail as it is. He actually looks columbian.

My newest babies

Use an infants toothbrush and warm water. a little at a time.

This one has partridge markings in dilute. Hoping for a cream blue

Partridge.

Incredibly fuzzy! What color is it? The silke roo was very obviously partridge as a chick. It doesnt look porcelain.

Any guesses? If its pure its sired by a blue partridge and momma is blue or splash. If its not pure its sired by Chocolate orp and momma is blue. It has all characteristics of a silkie, just washed out.

I live in SE Alaska. Our winter has been mild this year and my flock does alot of ranging. Normal winters they would stay closer to the coop. I only bring them in if they show signs of illness, I did lose one hen that has always been thin. She had been weak since hatch though, had I left her...

I use DE when I change my chips. I use wood stove pellets to. My coop stays dry. Never gross or damp. I have 12 large bantams in a 16 square foot coop at night. They sleep in a pile. They have never roosted. Only time we hadany respitory problems was from Hay with a dryer on it.

No. Alaska has warmed as you all froze. I took the opportunity to collect and incubate eggs. The first ones collected had gotten to cold.

I candled and opened the late eggs collected the same cold day. Chicks perished all had stages of hernia. There its something to be said for cold eggs I guess. Live and learn.

Her belly is opened :(. I may have jumped the gun on incubating. Apparently eggs gotten to cold can develop but at hatch have problems regardless of ideal incubation. The warm up here in Alaska gave me hope for hatching I know some of the eggs were gathered warm so I will keep trying.

I only assist enough to make sure they can get air and to tent if they lose moisture. I honestly think they are pipping a vessel. Their mom BruceLee literally sprung from her egg and had to be removed from the bator immediately cause the other chicks half out of eggs were being kicked all over...

I have been incubating for a few years now. This is just weird. They pipped early then slowly lose strength and die. They never seem strong and die in shell. I opened the first one. Other than a slightly bloody membrane, everything looked good. Including the yolk was gone. My D'anvers still...
