SILKIE CHICKENS
Fluffy Little Pets
The Silkie is a breed of chicken named for its atypically fluffy plumage, which is said to feel like silk and satin. The breed has several other unusual qualities, such as black skin and bones, blue earlobes, and five toes on each foot, whereas most chickens only have four.
GREAT WITH CHILDREN
This is a docile and friendly chicken breed. They really enjoy interacting with humans and are a pushover for lap time, where they frequently have a nap. It is a lovely bird to have for children since their feathers feel more like fur and lends itself to stroking. Silkies just love being carried around or having cuddles.
A SIGHT TO SEE
One of the most impressive things about the Silkie chicken is their thick, extremely fluffy feathers that make them look like a small, round furball Their feathers cover their heads, and sometimes hide their eyes, although they seem to see just fine through those thick feathers.
A CHICKEN FOR BEGINNERS
Silkie chickens are a delight to have around. Their personality makes them excellent birds for first-time owners or kids. They love getting carried around or getting a cuddle from you. These are non-confrontational chickens.
