Introducing my new Silkies

These 3 (1 cockerel and 2 girls) handsome babies arrived this afternoon, thanks to dizzy1pig (Nicki). They have settled in well and are only 8 weeks old.

All is well Nicki and they are all behaving - so far. The others do not seem to be giving them any troubles either. :)
