silkie frizzle mixes are known as sizzles

Great- I am still new to chickens, and I love learning more about what I've got. I assume you mean he is crossed with something crele, not crele barred rock?

well barred rock is not a breed and either is a rock they have plymoth rocks that come in barred varieties, but yours is a crele variety. He is a crele Plymoth Rock

I was referring to frizzle plumage.I have had and bred sizzles at one time.Got sizzle eggs in the incubator now.Fan of all frizzles whether pure bred or mixed.

they look like D'Anvers to me but dont worry about it id you dont know any the info on them

he's not a d'anvers they have beards and his wing carriage is wrong for that breed as well nor is he a rosecomb i have already been talking to plenty of breeders about him he is quail in color though and i do plan on working with that color in rosecombs. he is a mix probably a cull of somebodies he is gorgeous though

the breed is a black sex link and color is not crele this is a crele (not my pic)

heres a black sex link which is created by using a barred mother (usually a barred rock) and a red father (such as a rhode island red) to be more spacific on what yours is it is probably the black star (still a blk sex link)

rocks do not come in the crele coloring

This was my question- I was aware that barred rock is a type of plymouth rock- I suppose I was not specific when I typed! I think he might possibly be some sort of BR/RIR cross...as he comes from a place that has both. All in all, he is a pretty boy, and a great rooster!
