“I received them two days after they shipped. I was worried! Finally, I open the box to see the cutest fluff butts. I ordered six, and I received two blacks, two blue, and One white. One worried me for a day, but after some electrolytes, and rest she is now the loudest chick in the bunch.”
“We received our 6 chicks yesterday and are in love! They arrived within 1 day of shipping and were all doing great when I picked them up from our local post office. I love that I received a mix of colors. I'm continuing to check for pasty butt, but so far they seem to be thriving. They're active, eating and drinking. Thanks for these beautiful chicks!”
“I knew this going in but Silkies don't always take shipping well. I ordered five silkies arrive and all five were alive, but one had a prolapsed vent and was half the size of her sisters. She woke up with wry neck after a week of being separated and treatment; she passed shortly after despite vitamin E and care. The rest are healthy, happy, and frolicking around in the brooder. I can't wait until they get as big as their personalities.”
“I ordered 6 female silkie chicks from this assortment, to surprise myself and see what happens. Well, was I positively surprised! First off they were shipped on a Monday and arrived on a Tuesday which is absolutely amazing. I am so happy they came this quick. They were securely packed and arrived all alive and well. I am delighted to say that they have given me 2 of each color, white/ buff/ black. I am so happy that they put care into the selection of my birds and didn‚Äôt just sent me 6 of the same color or something like that. I am very pleased.
I have had them for a Couple of days now at home and they are all doing amazing. They don‚Äôt even have pasty butts, which usually always happens. I am very very pleased with my pet chicken and will continue to order exclusively from them.”
“I have raised silkies for 10 years from MyPet Chicken and have raised chicks that the chickens have layed and it's a gamble some live and some die. But My Pet Chicken has been great! It's hard to get female Silkies from Hatcheries, yes ,I've done that and 2 girls and 48 boys. So ,Thank You So Much My Pet Chicken”
“Love my silkies but1 had beak deformity. Did not realize it when they first came , they were way to small but 1 of the white silkies had a severe beak deformity which makes it difficult for her to eat or drink. I have to hand feed this silkie, little dissapointed”
“We ordered 5 silkies. 3 weren't well, and died within a couple of days of receiving. This was really hard for me. I took off work to care for them. The two that made it are very skittish, and run from you if you get near them (even though I handled them as babies). They are always anxious it seems. I love them despite this, and scoop them up every day to snuggle them. They are resistant at first, but will eventually give in, and enjoy a little chicken massage! They are now about 10 weeks old, and I'm hoping they'll eventually chill out.”
