Of all the ornamental chicken breeds, the Silkie Bantam is the most popular and most loved. Can't you tell why? They're the lap dog of the chicken world, complete with hair-like plumage and an incredibly sweet temperament. Silkies were originally bred in China, where they are still kept (and eaten) today. They have black skin and bones and 5 toes instead of the normal 4. In addition, Silkie hens make wonderful mothers and are even known to adopt baby ducks if given the chance!

And, according to a recent poll we conducted, Silkies are the #1 favorite choice for children! When stacked up against super popular breeds like Orpingtons, Cochins, Brahmas and Easter Eggers, they were the favorite, capturing 30% of the vote compared to just 24% for the next most popular choice. See the results, here.

Note: You will get a mix of bearded and non-bearded varieties with your Silkie order.
