SILKIES

These sweet little bantam chickens are quiet and east to spoil. They gather around your feet like puppies. In the summer, they can turn into little wild things in your garden as they keep the rows clear of weeds, bugs and low-hanging tomatoes. But you have to keep track of the numbers because the hens can disappear at any time to set on eggs in a secret nest.

Silkies lay very well when they are not broody but they are not production birds. Their feathers are very unusual fluffs and only begin to look like other birds' feathers on the wings where even here, the feathers are twisted. Eyes are black, earlobes are blue and the skin is black.

Silkies, often called Japanese Silkies, are a 2000-year-old breed, bred for the emperors as decoration for the gardens and formedicinal chicken soup.

Golden Egg Farm has hatching eggs from show-quality Silkies available year round.
