The good thing about Silkie Bantams (or any type of Bantam for that matter) is that they don't require as much space and food as other types of chickens do. A fenced in area (no predators allowed) and plenty of space to do chicken activities is key to having any poultry. I have some Silkies (which I just adore) and they live in the backyard. The majority of the time they spend running down grasshoppers amongst other insects. Great little helpers.
