Fluffy crests, soft feathers and feathered feet make Silkies easy to spot. At Chick Ceramics Café, you can meet them during a break from painting pottery.
What makes them so fluffy?
Their feathers lack the tiny hooks that hold most chicken feathers together, which gives them a soft, downy appearance. Silkies also have dark skin, five toes on each foot and feathers that come in several colours.
What are Silkies like?
They are usually calm and sociable, but each bird has its own temperament. Give them time and space to approach. They have a quiet area in the enclosure where they can retreat whenever they want a break.
What happens during a visit?
During your two-hour painting session, a member of staff will invite you into the enclosure for 20 minutes. Visits are scheduled in groups of six or seven and included in the price of pottery painting.
See how your visit works or book a table. For more about the breed, see the American Poultry Association.
