Does anyone else here raise Silkies?
I bought some eggs on eggbid and hatched what was supposed to be show quality silkies. They are very small chickens. The silkies I remembered seeing when I was younger were larger than mine.
Perhaps there are two sizes in Silkies?
They have been a good peaceful chicken, the kids have enjoyed raising them. I am just worried because they are so small.
Of course our rooster is happy, one male to 8 females! Just wait until he figures out he is a big boy!
I would appreciate any advice,
Candy
