provides excellent information I think every silkie owner needs. My girls and boy love getting dirty so this is really helpful and well written. Good job and thanks.
Thank you so much for such an excellent article, you covered everything necessary. As a taxidermist, I am always washing and fluffing various birds, though I use chemicals and tools you’d NEVER use on a live bird! Your silkies are gorgeous and I can’t wait to try cleaning a bird, (a dead one!), with safer and gentler chemicals and tools.
I don't have Silkies, i don't even have chickens, but following the detailed descriptions in this article i feel confident i'd be able to bathe a Silkie. Well written, lot's of humor and hilarious pictures of wet chickens!
I don't like, or keep Silkies. I don't agree with showing chickens.
If you're not like me, and there are lots of you then this article is a must. The advice seems sound, the pictures are great and the article hangs together well.
If there was such a thing as a wet look Silkie I might change my mind.
Everyone has their own preferences and opinions and that's completely understandable.
I really appreciate the lovely review on my article though, Thankyou!
