Silkies N Shades Farm was inspired by my love for the Silkie chicken breed. I love my fluffy butts!

Some beautiful Splash young boys available! Kept for grow outs, but I ended up with too many boys. Send me a message if interested. They are not aggressive and have been together in a grow out pen.

Just wanted to give everyone a heads up, after June I won't be hatching anymore babies until next year. I have a lot going on with my house and farm, tons of projects. Then I have my Respiratory business on top of it, so I need some downtime from the chicks, as much as I LOVE hatching.
Right now I have a couple grow outs available as well as some very fluffy 2 week olds. Message me if interested. One more hatch due in a week or so. πŸ₯🐣πŸ₯

I have two gorgeous blue chicks available that are 2 weeks old. They are just a bit too old to put with my brand new new hatch that just popped out last night of 8. Please message asap as I will be listing on Craigslist shortly. ALSO, please, message me if you are waiting for chicks!!! I am trying to line up this recent hatch and the next one with their waiting owners. :-)

Happy Fall! Congratulations to all of you who have new Silkie chicks this year. I just sold my final 4 chicks from my newest hatch a few weeks ago. I am officially done with hatching for the year EXCEPT for those who have messaged me and who have special ordered chicks ahead of time. For those who are not aware of my prepay program. I will continue to hatch eggs specifically for you, with a deposit up front. Otherwise, in Feb/March I will resume hatching chicks throughout the season. Thank you all, and enjoy these lovely Fall days. Check out the peek a boo chick below! πŸ˜‚πŸ£πŸ₯πŸ‚πŸ

Well, well, well! I was given a gorgeous, precious splash hen at the beginning of summer. After almost 4 weeks of quarantine I put her in my blue, black, splash pen with Balloo, my senior roo. After quite a few weeks of no laying, I was sure she wasn't capable, but then she started laying! I waited up until just 3 weeks ago, when I decided to test hatch her eggs to see if she made the cut as one of my breeder hens. I let a couple other hens, in my paint pen hatch them along with their own. Yesterday, I had the cutest, and perfect blue splash chicks hatch! "Lavender" has made the cut and will be a permanent hen in my BBS pen. Also, some adorable white babies from my paint pens! Available now! 😍😊

Bibbity, Bobbity, and Boo were out enjoying the sun for the first time in 2 months! Everyone has been cooped up due to the avian scare. Looking forward to more days of summer! Love my paint Silkies. 😍
