Would anyone ever want brabanter/appenzeller eggs?
My cream brabanter is apparently a rooster... oops. I haven't got any other brabanters, but I do have a silver spangled appenzeller. Which looks similar, and is of similar size (small).... I am considering penning them up together, since I can't imagine a brabanter/(orp, chantecler, SLW, or EE)... would anyone ever be interested in a Brabanter/appenzeller mix?
Count your blessings, not your eggs.

I'd be interested in them! I love them both and think you'd end up with a nice bird!

I dream of a society in which no one questions a chicken's motive for crossing the road.

Re: Would anyone ever want brabanter/appenzeller eggs?
I had no clue about either breed, so I looked them up in the breeds index.
I bet that cross would be pretty.
I'm Kelly and I have 1 Husband, 2 children, a dog and 6 chickens (1 Light Brahma, 1 EE, 1 Barred Rock, 1 Buff Orpington, 1 Rhode Island Red, 1 Sicilian Buttercup) and 2 BR and 3 welsummer chicks.
