Purplemaniacs Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Tonight I went out to put the chooks to bed and fetch their food in for the night and I found my little black silkie dead under the grub in their run. She was one of three silkies which I hatched in August 2012. That leaves the other two, a black male silkie and a white girl silkie. So sad, she was such a pretty girl, I have a bit of a soft spot for silkies just in case you couldn't tell. Chrissie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mollyripkim Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 I'm sorry to hear that too especially as she was young. Must have been such a shock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purplemaniacs Posted September 24, 2014 Author Share Posted September 24, 2014 Thank you everyone. It was a shock you don't expect to put them to bed and to have lost one. I am thinking about what to do now OH has suggested mixing the bantam group with the silkies. That might work I am sure the boy would be fine but not sure if the little silkie girl would be, or would he protect her? Any thoughts?
