Our Silkie Bantams are one of our most treasured breeds at the Sweet Chicken Homestead. They are all show quality with super fluffy plumage, lovely poofy heads, heavily feathered feet and are bearded.
Our Silkie Bantams are pure colors of black, blue, buff, white, paint, partridge and splash colors. Colors are pure. They are sweet gentle birds who love to cuddle and make fantastic pets for children, as well as brood mothers. They are affectionate and express emotion quite clearly. They tend to bond with other flock mates and have best friends within the flock. Total sweethearts!
Ours are also winter hardy as we are going into 10 generations now of Northeast winters. Our birds have genetically adapted to the weather conditions and do just fine through winters of even below zero temperatures.
Hatching eggs for this auction will be from first and second year layers.

*Our eggs are very fertile, we hatch constantly. We keep one rooster per four hens.
**We are not responsible for hatch rates as there are so many variables in different incubators, individual hatching techniques, and so many factors out of our control after they leave our hands, including broody hens and also during shipping. Hatch rates and fertility are two different things. Not all fertile eggs will hatch. Shipped eggs are a gamble as the process of shipment can damage them. Hatch rates with shipped eggs are less than with eggs not shipped**
We want all of our customers to have a great hatch. If you have any questions before or during hatch feel free to ask us.

The Sweet Chicken Homestead is home of The Sweet Chicken Project®
What is The Sweet Chicken Project?
Our flocks are hand raised with loving kindness. All of our flock members have names and are part of our family. On our homestead we even have a retirement home for older birds no longer laying. We love them and they are cared for through old age here, where they can live out their natural lives.
When you decide to raise chickens you have a few choices of how to obtain
them. In most cases, you really don't know what kind of genetics they'll have other than the breed, and they may have come from a less than ideal situation.
Chickens carry traits, temperament and personality from their parents, grandparents and so on just like us. You really have no way of knowing what kind of temperament they will have.
We have worked very hard at obtaining the sweetest, friendliest, kindest flock of birds that not only are affectionate, but can be handled by young children. We truly love our birds and they reflect that back to all of us everyday. Yes, even our roosters are sweet & child friendly, from our proven genetic lines.
The Sweet Chicken Project is in it's 10th generation of birds with these kind traits. We offer hatching eggs and chicks carrying these fantastic genetics.
All birds are pure breed and show quality.
