Oh my gosh! Love the powder puff on her headThe first 2 I had, didn't really have any feathers in their eyes. The third one I gave regular haircuts otherwise she would get stuck in the corner of the coop
I never claimed to be a chicken groomer

I recently had a dog pass away so now I have a free 10x10 kennel that I believe will become kampground silkie. Though I foresee one sticking it's head through the chain link.
I even bought a silkie proof feeder this time.

I'm convinced silkies were created by some farmer thinking "You know, we need some chickens that even the village idiot could catch....let's make them, short, round, unable to fly and blind!"

I love hardware cloth since we have raccoons. I live pretty rural so hardware cloth is very expensive and hard to get right now. But I'm resourceful, I got 2 months to figure it out. This would only be a pen for them during the day while I'm at work. Everyone sleeps in the same coop at night.

You forgot and wants to hatch everything including rocks and potato's,
I have two Polish hens and one Silkie hen. Last winter I converted an old horse stall in my barn for them to live in while it was cold out. Now they live in one of those premade TSC coops placed inside my main chicken run– they spend the day in the run with the big hens and get locked in their little coop at night.
