  • Silkie chickens have fluffy plumage that feels like silk. They always look like this. They have their fluffy feathers, but there are other differences from other chickens too. They have black skin and black bones and their earlobes are blue. They come in a variety of colors and sometimes there will be a new color when they’re crossbred.
    What do silkie chickens look like to you?

      Where do they even sell these silkie chickens? I’m guessing they aren’t in the USA or are they? I need to do research...

      A silkie chicken would die for a egg they put their egg in front of food, water and their own health. So a silkie chicken are the most loyal egg layers.

    Been breeding and showing Silkies in England for years Yes they are calm so make good pets for kids if they are looked after properly (they are not toys ) they lay smallish eggs and not that many But they are great broodies and mothers

  • @asleepyb0i400
    @asleepyb0i400 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Chickens in general make amazing pets if hand raised, but I would definitely recommend ornamental breeds (silkies, polish, serama, etc.) over egg laying breeds. It has little to do with temperament or compatibility, but egg layers have a higher chance of getting reproductive disorders that overall shorten their lifespans. Some of these would be egg peritonitis, ovarian cancer, among other things. I absolutely love all chickens, and egg layers tend to have very outgoing personalities, but they live shorter lifespans due to the stress of producing eggs, and it’s such a heartbreaking tragedy when one of them pass away.
    Ornamental breeds like silkies, though, do not produce as much, and therefore aren’t as susceptible to reproductive diseases. The only problem I have with silkies is their broodiness, and that is because the Texas summers can be brutal on broody hens- but it can easily be remedied by offering plenty of water and keeping the coop well ventilated. Silkies are such awesome mothers, and will tolerate almost anything as long as they feel safe. Overall, amazing breed. I have 1 myself, and she’s the sweetest bird ever, while still being the most dominant hen in the pecking order surprisingly.

    These aren't really unusual pets, lots of people get them for hatching. But yeah, people love them as pets. Also, China is the country that has them as a delicacy. Not, other countries. I think it's just China and Japan MAYBE.

    Steve Harvey has an I.Q (and E.Q) of ONLY 10%.
    Therefore, it is not surprising he gives ZERO RESPECT to these two brilliant women - by making them feel like circus clowns on national television.
    ...
    These two women should go on Ellen DeGeneres' show.
    Ellen has an I.Q. (and E.Q) of 1000%.
    She WILL give these two brilliant women the ULTIMATE respect they deserve.

      Steve Harvey is not even funny. He was disrespecting these two girls. Didn't he hear that these were pets, why would he make a stupid joke about eating them. They should have appeared on a show that would have been more positive and encourage others to care for and respect these sweet little birds.

      TheMidnadarkness It depends on what town you live in. It's best to check with ordinances in your town. However, it's also much better to have at least 2 chickens so they don't get lonely. Good luck!
