Description:

Every year for the past twelve years, despite having expanded our Silkie breeder flocks in preparation for more Silkie mania, availability becomes super hard to come by. But hey, chin up! All Silkies are cool—and My Pet Chicken is the one and only place where you can pick just a tiny quantity and select whether you want males, females, or both.

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. 

Your purchase of a Silkie Bantam assortment will get you a hatchery choice of bearded and non-bearded Silkies, in any combination of the following colors:
  • Splash
  • Blue
  • White
  • Black
  • Buff

Ordering Information:


You will receive one baby chick from this assortment for each quantity you add to your basket.
The breeds chosen to fulfill your order are selected by the hatchery based on which breeds had a particularly good hatch week your shipment is scheduled.
We can't take requests, as we are at the mercy of Mother nature's whims. If you really want that particular breed, you'll need to wait for its availability to pop up.
Also, remember that breeds in assortments may or may not be tagged, and specific breeds may or may not be noted on the packing list. If you need help with identification, please check out our Baby Chick Identification photos.
Breeds in assortments may or may not be tagged, specific breeds may or may not be noted on the packing list, and we cannot help identify unlabeled assortment chicks
