3.6m Omlet Chicken Run for sale, Brand New in Boxes, Milton Keynes (MK19)

[Space Chick]

My inccy is on with 20 eggs (Wyandotte bantams, pekins, red silkies and legbar x leghorns), my first hatching

 

Whilst picking up the red silkie eggs, the breeder had 2 gold silkie chicks.... We'll it would have been rude to not have brought them home

 

So, my brooder has been set up earlier than anticipated. The chicks are 4 weeks old, so will be 7 weeks when the eggs hatch, so will be big enough to go outside by then

 

Pics of the silkie chicks :

I know just how you feel Space Chick! I am on my first hatching too, with 24 pure breed Frizzle bantam eggs in my incy, now on Day 7. I am so excited, but worried too, in fact just how I felt in the run up to my first girls arriving with their cube.

Those little chicks are gorgeous and, you are right, it would have been very rude - not to mention absolute madness - not to bring them home with you!

Good luck with your hatching.

[Space Chick]

They are called Chick 1 and Chick 2, purposefully not being given proper names under gender is established

[chestnutmare]

What if one or both are boys? Have you got somewhere for them to go? Apart from the pot

I'd normally say cute but...

 

Silkie chicks have the ugly-cute factor like TNNs when they first hatch!!

[Plum]

No lewis they are cute!

 

20 eggs so that will be another run you'll be building
