Baby Chicks: Splash Silkies

My Pet Chicken now offers baby chick Splash Silkies! These Splash Silkies will mature to have white silkie feathers with "splashes" of black or darker blue feathers. 

Of all the ornamental chicken breeds, the Silkie Bantam is the most popular and most loved. Can't you tell why? They're the lap dog of the chicken world, complete with hair-like plumage and an incredibly sweet temperament. Silkies were originally bred in China and are still kept (and eaten) today. They have black skin and bones and five toes instead of the normal four. In addition, Silkie hens make wonderful mothers and are even known to adopt baby ducks if given a chance! You will get a mix of bearded and non-bearded varieties with your Silkie order.
And according to a recent poll we conducted, Silkies are a favorite choice as a pet for children! They were a top choice when stacked against super popular breeds like Orpingtons, Cochins, Brahmas, and Easter Eggers.
