    Silkies - They’re simply SPECTACULAR!

    all these stuff are imported so no use of a complain. luckily they are fairly cheap plastic things. I'll have to protect them from water.

    Silkies - They’re simply SPECTACULAR!

    we had too much rain. my coops are still muddy. I don't have time to do anything about that as I need to make a few coops. my goat shed flooded as well and 2 of my 3 girls are almost ready to give a birth. too much work for a pair of old hands. on top of that only 50% of my photovoltaic system...

    one of my young girls does not like mud. she sits on the roost all day long. I have to get her down to eat and drink 2x a day.

    Silkies - They’re simply SPECTACULAR!

    lucky you! I lost the smallest silkie, no idea how. puppies made a hole in their run fence so probably she got out. the other 2 were out as well but they are almost double size of the missing one. it must have been hawk as I didn't find a single feather.

    Silkies - They’re simply SPECTACULAR!

    today one of 6 mo german shepherd/greek shepherd mix entered my silkie's run looking for the eggs. I heard horrible noise and ran to see what happened. my 8 silkies were chasing and pecking poor puppy who could not find the way out:lau

    you can put it under the hen at night. I don't think you should wait a few days. chicks like company. put it where there is another chick of the same or similar colour.

    Silkies - They’re simply SPECTACULAR!

    I wish I could butcher my roo. although I ate silkie cockerels this one is special to me. unfortunately he makes rattling sound (probably canker damage) and cannot be sold. his son looks a lot like him and he is the reason I'll keep some silkies for fun, not breeding. single comb chicks put an...

    Silkies - They’re simply SPECTACULAR!

    if she eats on her own she'll be fine. when I have sick chickens I do a boiled egg test.

    hope she recovers. try if she will eat boiled egg on her own. if/when she does it means she is getting better.

    Silkies - They’re simply SPECTACULAR!

    single comb chicks came from both roos I used for breeding. I wanted to give up silkies but blue based partridge chicks are so adorable that I'm tempted to keep them. I also hatched a red chick that looks like male. he is the reason I cannot give up silkies but might be recessive for single comb.

    Silkies - They’re simply SPECTACULAR!

    I sold a beautiful blue based partridge silkie hen who was responsible for single comb chicks. it seems that only cockerels had single combs. is it maybe sex linked? her new owner wants her for her beauty, not for breeding so everyone is happy.
