I have had so many chicken breeds and my silkies are my favorite. They are adorable and have so much personality.❤ And I have noticed that their hardboiled eggs peel so nicely.
Yes, they are definitely our favorite as well! And keep us going with eggs in the winter.
Thanks for sharing. I have a bantam flock.
❤️you’re welcome!
I hatched my silkie for $2….😅 I was not planning on keeping the chickens I hatched but my son convinced me to keep a silkie. It’s now one of our favorites! She’s the only one laying right now
Silkies are dependable and sooo adorable! We love the breed and have expanded our Silkie flock down through the years. Glad you kept the Silkie 😊
That was wonderful, informative and sweet video. I could listen to your advice all day! haha Thank you for sharing your experience.
You’re welcome and thank you so much!😊
I am a first time owner of silkies and I have fallen in so love with them I just didn't they like to brood mine isn't a year old and she's has had 3 different set of babies.
Silkies are our favorite too! Their personalities are so funny! And yes, they go broody quickly.
one reason im getting silkies for my flock is because i want some broody mamas 🖤
I had a gorgeous lavender/slate blue/gray silkie rooster (RIP Peep). The comb was a deep ox blood color and blue earlobes. Was going to breed with him just for fun but maybe he wouldn’t have been a good candidate?
Ox blood coloring should be fine! Anything extremely dark in the burgundy tones or black is perfect for silkies. I bet the lavender feathering is gorgeous!
Really helpful thanku!
Thank you! 😊
i live in an apartment, but am planning to get silkies when we get a house. Ive been researching all i can about them so we know what we're doing when the time comes. thanks ❤
You’re welcome! They are our favorite chicken breed. Best of luck!

You’ll love the silkies! You’re so kind! Thank you! 😊
Are we allowed to bath their feet/legs when funky? My neighbor got on to me for bath their feet and wings (4weeks old had poo with pine chips stuck on them). I want what’s best for them 💕🐥
Yes, just dry them off afterwards so they will stay warm. 😊

I had 2 silkie...1 is good grade 5 toes another 1 is normal grade 4 toes..are the normal one still considered pure silkie?
Yes and no… a 4 toed silkie is not considered pure, but it may have came from a pure stock. Genetic abnormalities happen like 4 toes from a pure stock, but the breeding line needs to end with that chicken because the genetic abnormalities can be passed down to future generations.
@@harmonhomestead7434 thanks for information
Hey Harmon,I've been planning on keeping silkies so I've been researching on how many eggs do silkies lay in a clutch?
Secondly,are they kept on free range or an enclosure?
As far as laying in a clutch, certain hens will go broody in 3 days if eggs are not gotten daily. I would say anywhere from 10-12, but all of ours lay in the same nest boxes so it’s hard to give an accurate count. Ours always lay in the winter better than the summertime. I would highly recommend a sturdy, hand built pen, but we do free range ours. They know where to go to bed at night and put themselves up. We just close the doors at dark. Hope this helps!
Becawsss
