Verified Reviews for Silkie

chickens - Floorence, 13 December 2025

I have a pet silkie and 2 other chickens. she is very nice but the only thing that is and is that the aren't really friendly to the other chickens, so keep that in mind when you buy them.

Silkie's eggs are under estimated. - Gill, 28 January 2025

Silkie's eggs may not be very big and they are not the most prolific layers but you will not find a better quality egg. They have the same size yolk which is rich and has a far superior taste.

Silkies are the best - Heidi, South Glos, 2 May 2019

We’ve had a few different breeds but silkies are undoubtedly my favourite.. my dad wanted chickens again after we lost our last hens a few years ago so I surprised him with 2 silkie hens.. Egwina and Bailey.. they are so funny and are very interested in everything you’re doing. Since then we’ve had a few more silkies and they’ve never been any trouble! Great with the dogs and kids aswell as being great sitters on their eggs.

I really love chickens especially mini alpacas

Silkies - Ellie, 28 March 2016

Silkies are very friendly and great with kids, they look so cute and funny, but their feathers are not waterproof as with other breeds, so need adequate shelter from rain.
