This is a White Silkie. These chickens have feathers with no barbs or quills, and so they appear fluffy and soft. They are very good mothers, and even the cocks are known to care for the young. If I ever hatch guineas or other eggs, I'll put them under silkies instead of using the incubator.
I have other additions to the flock but I dare not say what or how many because my mother will think I'm crazy! Stop by if you'd like to see.
