Silkie
I have 2 Silke hens. There names are Freckles and Squirt. The Silke hens are my favorite kind of chickens in my coop. they look funny, they have a little puff ball on there head, it is really funny. I recently found out that Squirt is a rooster.
Silkies, originally from China or Southeast Asia, are one of the most unique
breeds of fancy or ornamental chickens. They come in a variety of colors with
black one of the more common, original colors. The color black is recognized by
both the American Poultry Association and the American Bantam Association,
allowing black silkie chickens to compete in the Featherleg Bantam class at
poultry shows. Unlike other breeds of poultry, silkies are born with the color
they will have into adulthood
