Description
White bearded Silkie bantam chickens (Exhibition Type) where the first Silkie variety admitted to the American Standard of Perfection, in 1874. White Silkies are a striking combination of black skin and fluffy white feathers, set off with a deep mulberry comb and wattles.
For a chicken that excels at exhibition, you can’t beat our show quality white bearded Silkie. The tame nature of these bantams also makes them outstanding as backyard pets. Silkies are typically quite broody. So if you need help raising chicks of any other breed, white Silkie bantams can handle the job.
For customers who love all five varieties of Cackle Hatchery® Silkies, we offer a Mixed Silkie Bantam Special. For more information about Silkies, see our Breed Spotlight: Silkie Bantam Chickens. See all color variations of silkies for sale

I ordered 28 white sikkies and received 30. All except one survived the trip to Maui Hawaii. They were lively because they were shipped so well. I was very impressed with the whole process at Cackle. My chicks are now running around in their little group and are absolutely beautiful. They are very fluffy and tame. Everyone falls in love with them. Thank you Cackle for providing me with these beautiful chicks. Next year I might order another color!

So Pleased
I am so pleased with my order from Cackle! I ordered 5 white silkie bantams received 6 healthy happy chicks in May of this year. Only ended up with 2 hens, I am not allowed to have roosters where I live so I only kept the 2 girls and they are the best! Super sweet and so fluffy! They started laying eggs at 5 months old and lay an egg each almost every day. I just love them so much. I will be back for more

In Love…
SO happy to receive my babies today! My white Silkies arrived. I ordered 5 and they sent me 6 which was good because one didn’t make the trip. The ones that did are in great condition eating, drinking and happy just an hour after being in their new home.

First time customer
This was my first time ordering from Cackle Hatchery. There was good communication from the time i ordered to the time of delivery. All of my chicks arrived happy and healthy and still are two days later. I will definitely be ordering from here again.

Happy healthy babies
This was our first time ordering our chicks online. We got the hatchery special 15 silkies and could not be more pleased with our order. We received 18 healthy happy chicks! The packaging is impressive and I was sure the 2 day journey not all would make it but after 24 hours all are still doing just as well. The care instructions included are a great touch along with the bonus stickers for the kids. We defiantly recommend crackle for future orders!

10 White Silkies
Order shipped on Monday and the 10 white silkies arrived in great shape first thing Wednesday morning in South Florida. We had a bit of a cold snap this week and I was concerned about the chicks getting chilled, but Cackle hatchery packed them nicely in a well insulated box with a heat pad and the chicks were warm and content in their journey south. They even through in a couple extras, very pleased with the chicks and the professional service.

Amazing birds
Picked up my white silkies at the hatchery today. The staff at Cackle is very friendly and helpful. From Cheryl in the ordering department to the young lady that waited on me in the store. The chicks made the 4 hour drive home in good shape. All chicks healthy and what I expected from the breed. I order 30 total chicks of two different breeds and I am pretty sure sure there were 37 chicks in the box. To hard to count because they are so peppy and energetic. No lethargic chicks and no off colored chicks. Looks like I have a new hatchery.

Silkie
I bought Silkies last summer. Bought 5 and 6 came. It was our first time owning chickens. My daughter who just turned 9 loves these chickens!! They all survived. And they have stole her heart. There ended up being 1 rooster and he chases her, pecks her, and bites her pants and she laughs every step of the way. They are adorable. The girls are very sweet. She is begging me to order more!! She is not an animal lover but she loves her chickens!!
