    Genetics, This Is A Project. What Color Rooster Should I Pair This Hen With?

    So this is a project that I’m working on. I’ve got this beautiful Pencil Laced Satin hen and I’m trying to decide which color rooster would best compliment her color? I would like to produce more of her color pattern. I had one person tell me to pair her with a gray rooster. Thoughts?

My end goal would be something with the hardiness, personality, and smarts of OEGB, but larger in size (still smaller than average large fowl), larger eggs, and less aggressive roosters. The first two chickens I got were OEGB mixed with some...
