What colors are compatible with each other?

What do you mean by compatible?

What do you mean by compatible?

Like if i breed a silver laced or a buff to a blue or a barred, what would i get? I dont know anything about chicken genetics. Is it ok to breed any color together, and is it diff for different breeds?

I want to know if anyone can answer my question, someone says I have a brahma bantam, but is anyone sure it isn't a Sultan?
This one has extra toes, really feathered feet, a big poof on his head and cheeks, and he is plain white.

It's a sultan. I used to raise them.

Lurker alert!

I'm just getting interested in breeding my cochins and am using this thread for inspiration and information. Thanks posters!

According to the 2012 directory thread, no one is breeding true red cochin bantams. I'm hoping that's not true because I don't want to resort to hatchery stock to find the rooster I want to breed to my hen.

I am trying to start a red mottled project but I need a typey roo to correct the form of my mottled red hen.

my mille fleurs are F1 & F2 but still young...so I probably won't have eggs until Fall.

As a newbie I need to know what the term F1 & F2 means. I see it a lot in here and I have seen it on ebay for hatching eggs that are being sold. Help me out. I'm not familiar with these terms. Feel free to laugh if you need but I honestly don't know what this means.

Try Joanie Fullerton, I think that's correct.
