📝 10 Things I’ve Learned in My First Year of Silkie Breeding 🐣

1. High chick mortality is NOT normal. If 30–50% of your chicks die, that’s not “just Silkies.” That’s husbandry, genetics, incubation, or all three.

2. Don’t assist with hatching. If they can’t get out on their own, they’re not meant for your breeding program. Harsh? Yes. Correct? Also yes.

3. I can’t run a chicken hospital. If a bird needs constant intervention to survive, it’s not breeding stock. That’s the job description. Not cruelty.

4. Soft culling and hard culling are both necessary. Pet-quality placement is still a cull. Hard culls are sometimes the only humane choice. Avoiding culling creates weak lines and a whole lot of heartbreak.

5. A big following does not mean someone is an ethical breeder or produces high-quality birds. Social media clout doesn’t build type, structure, or genetic stability.

6. A rooster will make or break a line. You can have amazing hens—pair them with the wrong roo and you’re breeding disappointment.

7. If you have $150 to spend, buy the pullet, not the eggs. Hatching eggs are a gamble. A pullet is an investment.

8. QUARANTINE. QUARANTINE. QUARANTINE. No exceptions. No shortcuts. No “but she looks healthy.” Your best birds deserve your best boundaries.

9. Coccidiosis treatment matters. Pantacox gives dramatically better outcomes than Corid. Once you’ve used it, you won’t go back.

10. Breeding trios and quads are gold. Control your genetics, rotate hens, track outcomes.

✨ BONUS✨
Long-time breeders aren’t “gatekeeping.” They’re tired. Many have been burned, used, or drained. If someone mentors you, pour back into them. Respect their time, ask good questions, and show gratitude.

Wishing joy and love to you and yours this holiday season ⛄️🎄

After tomorrow ~ 12/1 ~ I will be postponing all chick/ bird shipments until after the holiday season. Delayed shipping times can be particularly challenging, not to mention dangerous for the babies & birds.
