balti Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 My 3 silkies arrived today - how cute are they!! - I have a black, gold and blue... and chubby chook was right i want a white one now............ There is room and I'm kicking myself i didn't get one. Only thing is, the gold one is a little smaller then the other 2 and is getting picked on. Poor thing is running to get past the other 2 with her head down and has been sitting in the eglu most of the day. Hopefully tomorrow things may be better after a nights sleep - can't wait for them to leap around the garden....I have 2 'normal' chickens and a bantam cock Kenny who has been so excited today watching them... He can't wait to meet them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mollyripkim Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 I'm so pleased for you, biased I know but I love silkies. I did exactly the same and started off with three but desperately wanted a white one - now have two! Hope you enjoy many hours watching their funny little antics.

balti Posted May 13, 2012 Author Share Posted May 13, 2012 I don't think they are ready to smile for a photo yet, Poor goldie is having a hard time, other 2 are really giving her grief - she can't even eat. She is just so sweet too.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
