Well, here they are. I call them the girls. "I hope!!" They are the cutest things. I have built a chicken pen for them and will put some kind of bedding in there. Not sure what is best. I know the poop and scratching and all but I see the devastation that the grasshoppers, snails and caterpillars make. I am willing to combat them with chicken ammunition. In time I will see which is the lesser of two evils and hope the good out weights the bad as for as the chickens go. I have been told the silkies make a better pet I just smile every time I see them. I have named them Stella, Winnie and Chocó. Thanks for the advice and tip as I will need all in the help in raising them.
