were planning on breeding them but I just saw something on wiki that inbreeding is horrible! And they're all siblings xc

Yea inbreeding is very bad mabeye you should try to trade roosters with someone so you don't have problem

 

[LilJoe]

I'm SO attached to both one is very friendly and gentle and the other is shy and friendly

and payed like 15 bucks for them when they were to like 5 days old

 

[LilJoe]

I'll just have him breed with my silkie Cx

 

[bk15]

I would be a interesting cross a silkie and lavender Orphington?

 

[LilJoe]

Every time I think about it I think I'll get a lavender silkie cx

 

[bk15]

Both the Lavender gene and the Silkie gene are recessive. Both parents must have at least one copy of either gene for the trait to express.
And line breeding, breedings fathers to daughters and mothers to sons, is perfectly fine. Breeding half-siblings is also fine, as long as each bird had a different mother or father. Direct brother/sister pairings is never a good idea.
