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?

Give it a shot LOL!

I got Spitzhaubens and Brabanters will probably the next thing I will have. I love the one on Eggbid those Golden Spangled Spitzhaubens, those are goreous!

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

I had no clue about either breed, so I looked them up in the breeds index.

I bet that cross would be pretty.

I have spitzhauben/Faverolle mixs in brooder now 2 wks old. noisey little critters. The difference in the banter and spitzhauben is, banter is breaded and spitzhauben has pointed head


I have gotten addicted to raising chickens and now have to many to list. I want Porcelain Duccle. I hatched 2 today
