Silkie chickens are a domesticated breed. Therefore, their habitat is a back yard in a chicken coop. That is the environment that suits them best!
No, not all chickens are yellow, these Chinese "Silky" Chickens are black skinned. Reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silkie
Silkie chickens are extremely calm. When you raise a silkie chicken from when young it helps. My sister got a silkie chicken from a chicken breeder online. At first the silkie would screech every time you would pick her up, but my sizer held her every day for about a week; now all I can say that chicken is the most tame and calm chicken we have... She even won 1st place in showing at the fair.
you can sex a silkie by its pompom on the top if it is big that normally means its a hen and if it is small or doesn't have one it normally means a rooster
I have Silkie Chickens who are very broody, they are little bantam chickens that look like little cotton balls.
YES!! Certain breeds of hens do have what looks like an afro hair do. Silkie's and polish hens have tufts of "hair" instead of a comb on the top of their heads. See "related links" below for a picture of a silkie hen
in between the bones in the wings the female chicks have a flap skin in between there.
There's a Korean breed who has blue skin and meat.
Most Silkie hens and roosters are identical and sometimes the rooster Silkie doesn't crow through out his whole life. The only way you can tell them apart if the Silkie is mating with hens and has a spur then of course it is a rooster. And if a Silkie laid eggs or is sitting on eggs then she is a hen. Another way to tell them apart is if you have a hybrid Silkie that Silkie might get a big wattle and comb.
Where, for example? Do you have any website or address where can I buy some eggs?
the chickens sex cell has 16 chormosomes
There are a small number of breeds of chickens with feathers on their legs. Some of these are the Cochin, Brahma, Sultan, and American Silkie.
