A hawk got my beautiful Gloria today. She was the sweetest and silliest silkie. I'm absolutely devastated. I am going to miss her so much.

Got this girl as a chick from tractor supply 5 months ago. People with chickens and silkies find her very cute, but I need to know if my feelings about her being the cutest pet ever is an unbiased opinion and other silkies tend to be around the same cuteness as her. I think she has high quality show genetics with fluff completely covering her little feet, so she looks like Charlie Chaplin.

She’s a black bantam who has a mildly deformed foot that curls, though only stops her ability to perch. She weighs a little more than a pound and is no bigger than a watermelon for one. Her favorite reward is being cuddled and we indulge so she a little spoiled. And her favorite snack is grass.

I’m wanting to order diapers for my silkie hen. Any suggestions on size?
