Is there any way to make a new breed of chicken!?!?
I mean if all of the chicken breeds come from other breeds like the Orpington ( came from Langshan-Rock-Minorca crosses. )
Could today, I take two breeds an combine them( breed) an make a new chicken with new traits, coloring, egg size, egg production, egg color, different types of feathers, an if I standardize the new chicken it could one day be recognized as a actual breed?!!! An how long would it take to make a new breed!
 
Of course you could!! It would take many years, and a ton of generations, but it is possible. The hard part would get it accepted, which can take years in it's self.
