I do love their fluffiness  :D
I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days all attack me at once...

me to!  its what attracted me to them, that and their super friendly nature.  they aren't as skittish as the pekins.  though a few days of small bubs teasing them they might be!!

the new chicks are now mixed in with the older ones.  was a few hours of one of the pekins chasing the white (mostly) silkie but they all went to bed together quite happily and have been fine ever since.  were a bit  cliquey initially but now they are all happy to mix easily with each other.  no more chicks now, enclosure is just about teh right size for the 6 of them.  just waiting on  the first tiny batam egg to appear, soon i hope!
