so I have this rooster that I got from a swap meet last year and the lady selling him and his companion hen said he has a frizzle, which he is obviously not. I did some research and I believe he is a sizzle. my grandmother wants me to show him at the county fair next year. he is a nice rooster...
About a week ago, I hatched 3 silkie-frizzle hybrids! They are super adorable, and I can't wait till they can leave the brooder. Somehow I was dumb enough to never consider that these guys might be picked on for their size when they join the flock. I've introduced newbies before, put them in a...
Frizzle #1 (can anyone tell me what breed this is a frizzle of? Also no idea for this one’s gender)
Showgirl #1 (pullet?)
Showgirl #2 (roo?)
Sizzle #1 (pullet?)
Sizzle #2 (Roo?)
Sizzle #3 (pullet?)
Silkie #1 (Roo?)
Silkie #2 (pullet?)
Hey there!
I purchased this little cutie yesterday, and was told it was about 3-4 days old. Very sweet, sizzle silkie that really enjoys attention. It’s definitely the right size, but I’m impressed by its feather growth! Is it pretty common for some chicks to have as much growth as this?
As...
Howdy BYC!
So I've got this awesome Serama rooster named Blue who is absolutely gorgeous now but wasn't always so...when he molted his down and started getting his juvenile feathers, he had a few bald patches and was kinda scraggly looking. It's my understanding and experience, however, that...
Has anyone bred a Tolbunt hen to a white silkie rooster?
I specifically have a frizzled Tolbunt that I would eventually like to breed to my white roo. I have read that this can result in smooth, frizzled or sizzled chicks but I’m wondering if the color will stay true or if I’ll lose all Tolbunt...
We have some Turkens we hatched last week, of the 9, one was a Frizzle.
We wanted to breed for showgirls, so we got 6 Silkies.
If we breed the Frizzle Turken with a Silkie, what would we get? (Turkens all have bowties).
Our goal is Showgirls, and Sizzle Showgirls.
How would we go about...
This is my showgirl sizzle and she’s been looking extra ugly for the last week or two and I assumed it was just moulting and now I’m just nervous I was wrong
Hey y’all!
I’m looking for, I believe they’re called, Silkie Sizzles? I’m going to attach a picture of what my mother-in-law sent me. I find them online being called 3 different things.
Thanks!
I have a Molted Black Cochin Frizzle Roo and thinking about breeding him with black and blue silkies. Good idea ? Bad Idea? And what do you think they will look like ? And info would be greatly appreciated!
Hi, I have a Sick silkie that I am concerned about.
I was away on vacation and once we came home we found one of our 2 month old silkies in her coop looking sick. She was Laying down with her legs sprawled out in the middle of the coop peeping for her mother. I took her out and got a little...

I would love some help with my new sizzle babies. They’re currently just over 1 week old and I would really like to name them!
I would love names that really suit how they look. I’m thinking one will be white and the other partridge? White perhaps more frizzle? What do you think of...
I picked up these chicks yesterday. I meant to get three. In any case... I have a bunch of new birds. The woman I got them from had beautiful frizzles, sizzles, and silkies, and I think I saw a few SLW too? Not sure all what else was there, but was hearing these called frizzles and/or...
