They are gentle and hardy back yard pets. Tango hatched 11 chicks and they are now about 2 1/2 weeks old. I also have a 6 month old Roo named Coda. He is an extra handsome bird.
If any of you are near North Fort Worth area, interested or know someone who is please call me before they are all gone.

Bearded Silkie Bantam Chickens - White
Deb, are you selling your chickens?
Man I wish I was closer, me and my wife want a couple of them bad!
BrandonSivek, I have 2 white silkes that need homes. I can take a pic of them tomorrow to show you what they look like..I am not sure what sex the are since they were given to me as a month old..The people got them as surprise chicks and didn't want them..right now they are 3 months old on June 16. I was looking for somebody to give them a home. I have standard breeds and they don't bother them..
I am 45 mins away from you going up Hwy 146 to Dayton then to Liberty then to Devers..lol..
My experience is that Silkies are a little more disease prone but worth it. They are great pets and loving parents. If there was ever a candidate for a "house chicken", Silkies would be at the top of the list. They are easily trained as a lap chicken.
Moodene that would be great!!! I can't wait to see the pics! Is Jax's Burgers still in Liberty? That place has awesome burgers!
Yes Josephine, I'm selling 12 of my chickens;
1- 6 month roo, and 11 - 1month old chicks. I can only keep so many here in this neighborhood.
I wanted to make sure the chicks are 'hardened off" (so to speak), before selling them. They are all excellent birds!

They surely have multiplied for you, they are adorable, I am sure they will find a good home.
Josephine.
OHH.. I wish I lived closer. I really don't need anymore animals but silkies are one of my all time favorites.
Here is the other one.... If you have a pet carrier or a box with holes in it..if ya want them..Ya can pick them up after ya eat...LOL...
Ya'll can come down Hwy 90 towards Beaumont and pick them up at my house..I am about 15 mins from Liberty. I'll be home by then.

Like I said..they are only 3 months old right now..
I have this visual image of Silkie Bantams on a billboard saying... "eat more Jax burgers " LOL
They are charming and I'm certain both Debnes and Moodines will find good homes!
HAHAHAHAHA...YUP!
Hilarious Podster! lol!
Just thought I'd update on the chicks and roos...
I decided to donate them to Rocky Top Therapy Ranch

The kids there will enjoy them very much. We can go visit them any time. :-)
