Here are my 4 chicks I hatched out this summer. (I hatched 6, but 2 silkies were given to a friend. He said they tasted like a lovely mix of pheasant and chicken)

I think I have a trio of silkies and a light sussex (or light sussex cross) female.

Here they are

Those silkies are crazy-looking! It does look like a trio though.

Not sure the Light Sussex is a hen though. You'll know soon enough!

Apparently my black one is boyish, so I may be out of luck

They are a bit cute and fluffy, the light sussex looks like mine did when we got her she was about 15 weeks so fingers crossed.
i want some banties, they are daf, not too long for your eggs now then.
