MPC's silked Easter eggers - who has them?

[Hardboiled]

What do you think of them if you have them? I've added them to my cart 3 times this week, please either convince me to go ahead and get them, or tell me they're the worst chickens ever created so I can stop looking at them.

I hope they're amazing because I just ordered 4. I'm weak...

The older the cross gets, the more they seem to be right. The first few years the cross was avaliable, most didn't fit was was advertised, but more recent reviews seem to show that it's a more stable crossing now that they've had the time to work on it.

I got my first egg today from one of my silkie easter eggers! I love these guys! I'll try to get some pictures of them soon, but here's their first egg. The girls are all very easy going and sweet and curious. The roo, Mr. Fluffles, is adorable but a little extra dumb haha. Overall 10/10 highly recommend. I noticed their price is double what I paid last year so I'm not sure I'd buy at that price but I'd say these puffballs are splurge-worthy.

I read allot are not silkied and lay brown eggs to me they look like hatchery silkies is all just slapped a higher price tag

We shall see I ordered 3 pullets and a roo. I'll be thrilled if they all look like big silkies and all lay blue, but I'll settle for just looking like big fluffy silkies. It looks like they're a bit cheaper this year. I hope that means they're breeding truer. I have chickens just for fun, will report back when these guys arrive and as they grow.

Mine looks exactly like a Silkie and lays a medium green ish egg.

Seems like a cross that can’t go wrong! I bet they’re the cutest chicks ever too!

I just ordered them last week but they won't be here till early June. You and I are in the same boat.
