I'll be picking these guys up, along with my Bourban Red Turkeys on Tuesday.
They were hatched in January and should be ready to lay lots of eggs and hatch lots of eggs next Spring. Apparently, they are laying eggs NOW!! I might have a clutch coming before the snow flies ... :-)
Still nothing firm on a Cuckoo Maran rooster or pair.

I thought I heard that Silkies have trouble in cold climates; is that true? Will you have to keep them in warmer accommodations than the other chickens?
I have never seen silkies like that. I think they need a bath lol. We kept Silkies in our unheated barn with a heat lamp over the water and they did just fine. They don't have big combs so that seems to help them with the cold. Michele
