    Wow! She is beautiful! How old is she? How long does it take for them to develop all their feathers? Do you think both of mine are Sizzles, or something else? What do they call the color of my little multi colored one?

    Okay, here are the girls... or, should I say I THINK these are girls! And now I'm told they are Sizzles, not Frizzles, which is fine, they are very sweet and I really enjoy them. I'm just trying to find out more about them. Thanks everyone!!![/IMG]

    It's pretty confusing! And I'm finding that they change every day! The two I have, one is the white and the other is multicolored (tan, rust, a few dark feathers) although they are only a week or so apart in age, the white one is out growing her daily! Do theyou have bantam and full size varieties?
