Baby Chicks: Blue Silkie Bantam Female Reviews

4.2 Rating 42 Reviews
We weren’t sure what to expect because everybody says silkies are really hard to sex, but our girl is our 2nd to lay at 5.5 months old! Perfect little cream eggs. She was shy at first but as soon as she started laying, she became so friendly and lets us pet her. She’s also one of the bigger of our bantams AND holds her ground against our standards too! She’s the best!

Okay, so I got a blue (mine is a full blue, not black or splash) and she is the cutest! She’s a little spacey and is lowest in pecking order but she doesn’t seem to notice or care. She is SO fluffy and likes to snuggle. All 3 of my silkies from MPC were sexed correctly and all 3 are laying (5 eggs a week) at 24 weeks! I couldn’t be happier!

So sweet such a little cotton ball so tiny but so sweet needs special attention around the bigger breed babies but holds her own and is paring well with the jubilee orpington !

The only reason I gave 3 stars is because my chickens are all healthy and alive one year later but they do not have nearly the amount of fluff that these photos show. Im assuming the quality is not as good? All 4 of my silkies have more like short mohawks rather than pompom shapes.. their rumps are also not at all fluffy and have a couple of "straw-like" tail feathers.

I ordered 20 bantams, 3 are blue silkies. I got 2 blue and a splash couldn’t be happier. I live in Colorado and the chicks shipped Monday and I got them Wednesday morning. Everyone doing great! Love your company friendly staff.

I ordered 4 chicks, 3 Silkies and one Sultan. On Monday evening around 6:00 pm I received notice that the chicks had shipped, and my post office called me at 9:00 a.m. the next morning to let me know they’d arrived. The chicks were all in terrific shape! Three days later they are healthy and happy little puff balls of joy! My blue Silkie is truly blue and such a fluffy sweetheart!

Received my 2 blue silkies this morning. Although I can’t tell for sure yet which I got but I believe one is a splash and the other a blue or black. My girls arrived healthy and happy! I love them so much already! Thank you for my beautiful new girls!!!
