Essex Silkies

Happy customer 🥰

Team buff in the garden

I have no words for the pure magic that is, Princess.
This is selective breeding at its best.
This little one has completely missed the awkward stage and gone straight to perfection. 🥰

Guys… its nearly spring! Are you ready?!? We are 🥰

Hi all! After an amazing Christmas and New year, along with a lovely break to Mauritius, we are back to business.
We have been very busy here at Essex Silkies, all our pens have been piled high with new bark... meaning no more muddy pens! Whilst our own garden is still a tad wet, all our Silkies are currently living a life of luxury.
10 tonne done, another 10 tonne to go!

We have integrated all of our keepers into our breeding pens and of course being Silkies, they don't just take themselves off to bed, they make us put them all to bed manually every night which is probably amusing to watch, but its one of my least favourite chores! Anyone else have this problem, I'm sure you do!

We are now open as usual and cant wait to welcome back our lovely customers!

Pullets & POL available now 😃

Fluffy butts available 🥰

Due to a couple of cancelled orders, we have these beautiful Silkies available for new homes x

Essex Silkies has been a whirlwind so far this year 🥰
So many happy and healthy babies and so many wonderful customers that provide the best homes! Last bunch remaining now for this year so please do get in touch if you would like to be the proud owner of an Essex Silkie (or 2 🐥 🐥)
🖤🩶🤍🤎🧡💛

A single cuckoo hatched yesterday, so we popped her in with mum and all is well.
Luckily she was broody anyway so has sat with her the whole time.
I’ve taken food and water to them today, and mother hen eventually knows I’m not a threat, she’s stopped pecking me and let me give chick some water.

The Cuckoo family 🥰
