Welcome to the site deana.

If you are wanting to sell them I would go for a breed that is easy to sex at day old or early on. This will help you to just raise hens as cockerels are really hard to rehome. From what I have read silkies are particularly hard to sex. You could go for Welsummer bantams which are fairly easy to sex at day old.
