How many beaks now Joe?
Twenty - at the moment! Two silkies looking on the broody side. (Only to be expected - the brooding season for silkies is when thereâs a âyâ in the day)
I think I could fall in love with solkies
Soft long feathers and gentle natures
Whatâs not to love?
Joe had better take charges of the ones in the Cellar garden, thenâŚ
The Silkie hens are one hen of each colour: one of the non-standard ones, a red bearded silkie, and a partridge silkie, and a cuckoo silkie, and a bearded splash silkie, and a buff silkie, and a chocolate silkie, and a black silkie, and a white bearded silkie, and a golden silkie, and a blue silkie makes eleven.
Blissful chicken wrangling
In charge of silkies? Oh yes, theyâll let us think that, so long as we do exactly what they want. They manage to con the roosters, tooâŚ
Remember this?
Isnât that rather where we came in?
Possibly with one word less
Donât make me tsssk at you.
Silkies are the poultry equivalent of cats in their ability to train humans?
Given that our joe is feeling poorly, Iâm sure that youâll be joining me in a toast to his better health.
SlĂĄinte mhaith!

[toastity]
Donât get butter & marmite all over our joe, please, gannet Sparrer
I didnât know, but Iâll certainly join you now that I do,
Iâll probably manage that all by myselfâŚ
Well, maybe not the Marmite. About the only yeast product I havenât taken to
Me too, Joe
Hate the stuffâŚ
