He is a cuckoo. I was told "Double Cuckoo." Not 100% sure, and he's just a pet anyway.

Just sharing a picture of my newest silkie rooster, Kingsley (and my kitty, Marvin).

I haven't posted on here in a very long time. Just wanted to share a few pictures again. This was my pair, Micah and Chloe. But sadly, Micah passed away a few weeks ago. I don't have many silkies, but I am glad I have one pullet from them. Foxy was the cutest chick. She's around 9...

Does anyone have pictures of blue/splash silkies purchased from Catdance's hatching eggs? Can be chicks or adults. Thanks.

I have a silkie hen, who is almost 2 years old. She has a little bald spot on the top of her head. It's not noticeable at all just to look at her, but I noticed when I was looking her over (for mites and whatknot). I was wondering if it's probably just a little molting, or what? I don't think...

Gorgeous!

how many chickens is toooooo many Golden question right there. I have 1 & 1/2 acres? Are they going to be free ranging all the time? If not, it really depends on the size of the pen(s), not the size of your land.

Micah is from a Porcelain project pen. He's a really dark shaded porcelain I guess, almost like a lavender partridge. Love his color.

Wanted to share my handsome boys! lol

Thanks everyone, and he is 5 months old.

I haven't been on BYC as much lately, but I was back on tonight, so I thought I'd share my newest silkie. Here's Faroh (pharaoh)... splash cockerel

She looked really self blue to me (as a chick and still does somewhat), and her mom is Chloe (my avatar), a dark porcelain. But she had a couple small splash spots to develop as she filled out, and her dad is splash. Thanks everyone for the nice comments about Mia!

I wanted to share some recent pictures of my little Mia. This year was my first year hatching silkie chicks, and I only hatched a few for fun. Mia is the only one I kept from the Spring and Summer hatches. She was a cute chick! For a few months there, she was looking so weird! She looked...

I think 6 bantam eggs is fine. I have small birds, like Old English Game Bantams, that make nests in the yard and pop up in a few weeks with as many as 10 new chicks!

Thank you. S/he is a little over 2 weeks old.

Thanks! I sure hope so!

Love this little chick (porcelain). It would be awesome, if it's a pullet!! Oh well, I have a while to wait yet, but it's still cute.

Thank you! I don't have any really young ones in the pen. The youngest one is 6-7 months old.

My two are sharing babies as well (they went broody around the same time). They're separate from the other silkie hens though. Question: When would be the best time to let the momma hens and babies stay in the pen with the others? OR when would be the best time to let the mommas back in...
