    Looking for paint silkies! (Any colour)

    I'm looking for paint silkie chicks/eggs! Any gender, but pullets are preferred. I live out of America, so it'd be preferred if it's someone who also does, or ships well. It doesn't have to be someone here, but if you know breeders who can, please tell me. Thank you! :p

    Silky Sexing

    I know this is everyone’s favorite. I have two Silked EEs. One hen and a rooster. My hen went broody and hatched one of her own eggs and a couple of other hens’ eggs. My Silked EE chick looks exactly like her/his father. Because of the silky feathers and bantam sizing, I cannot tell what she...

    4 Silky Roosters Need a New Home Lubbock, TX

    Hello Everyone, We purchased 4 Silky Chickens from Tractor Supply. 1 is 6 Months old Rooster, the other 3 are 2 months and Roosters. It was just our luck that all 4 were roosters. As we have no other chickens (hens) We have no use for them. No cost if anyone can come pick them up.

    Ducks & chicken not getting along

    I have 2 Muscovy ducks and 1 silky chicken who we’ve had living in the same coop for over 2yrs. They’ve always got along fine, except the past week or two they (chicken and 1 duck) have singled out one of my ducks and will chase her around and pull her feathers. She is so scared and sits alone...

    A tricky tractor supply surprise!

    Picked up some olive egger chicks from tractor supply over the summer and from what I remember they were supposed to be all pullets. But we all know how that is. Anyway, one of them has a silkie feather gene! I dont know how common it is, but its totally an olive egger type- not a silkie at all...

    Tumor or egg bound

    One of our silkies has had a hard lump in her abdomen since last night. We figured it was egg bound so we tried the suggested treatment to free her of it, but got nothing. We tried sticking a q-tip with natural lubricant, olive oil and still nothing. So my mom carefully stuck her finger in with...

    1 year old silky never once laid an egg

    My silky hen is a year old this summer. She hatched early last summer and has never once laid. Our other two silky hens have been laying daily since mid fall without fail, so why has this one not yet laid her first egg??
