Silkie chickens have unusual fluffy feathering, a head crest, very dark skin caused by melanotic gene and 5 toes that are covered with feathers. They are a unique breed and can lay up to 100 eggs per year

Silkie chickens are very popular with hobby keepers as is the name ‘cloud’ for a white Silkie!

Silkies adapt well to smaller set ups and are fairly docile, making them perfect pet chickens as well as fantastic broodies.

Because of their feathery feet and fluffy feathers they don’t like mud, and prefer a more sheltered set up like other bantams
