Hi there. I own Dominique and Brahma chickens. They all free range. The Brahmas are a new addition this year. If they crossbreed will it ruin the hens bloodlines like it does in dogs?

i'm wondering what my buff's and supposedly RIR's mix will look like,i won't mind at all though,to me chick's are chick's,on the RIR's since joining i have learned that most aren't the orginal antique breed,but i'm ok with that,i love the allHello there and welcome to BYC!
If they interbreed the offspring won't be pure breeds anymore. But lots of us own Mutt chickens. LOL So unless you are raising pure breed show birds, it isn't a problem as far as the birds are concerned.
yea,i love them,would like to have the orginal one's but i'm new to this so i have no idea,the man i got them from is older and raises buffs and RIR's on his private farm,they are all healthy and doing great,i'm thankful for that,i hope you get your new coop soon,we just finished the north wall in our coop tonight,well much earlier,lol,good luckI have heard that about the RIR too. Efowl sells two kinds. I don't care about them crossing, but I would like to know if I can separate them later and still use them for purebreeds. The biggest reason being because the Dominiques are an endangered heritage breed and I thought about trying to preserve the breed in the future.
