Shari McCollough Raises Silkie Chickens

One of my favorite shows came on television this morning and I was very much enjoying learning about the bark bar and tips on how to get pets off of furniture but I guess the one that caught my attention the most was the feature about a chicken called a "silkie" I had not heard of such a bird before watching this episode.
