July 10, 2020 The remaining chicks Mrs. Peeps A Lot, Little Jimmy, and Princess Peach went to live with their broody mama. Aug 14-15 Mama Greasy hatched out Little Debbie the barred silky and Midnight the silky rooster. Today its been way over 6 months where is my silky chicken eggs?

Silkie are late layers. Mine started close to 8 months of age. It is not unheard of for them to be a year old before they lay. 😊

Thankyou there adopted sister Little Debbie started laying a few days ago. So I was a bit confused. That solves 1 question. Do you know why there mother all of a sudden quit laying?
She was my best layer.

Silkies lay very late compared to other breeds. Be patient. Some may even take up to a year.
