Breeding a silkie and satin silkie?

[Bigmac22077]

I am thinking about keeping the partridge silkie I got and cross it with the satin silkie. Would this do anything weird? I’ve never tried to breed before let alone cross breed. Top is the satin and a hen, bottom is partridge and a rooster.

It might throw silkied chicks and satin chicks depending on if it has a sullied feathers gene, or they'll just throw satin chicks

X2 Jacin.
You’ll probably get 50% silky, 50% normal chicks.

Satins and silkies and bred together all the time so nothing weird would happen.

I heard that breeding a Silkie back to a satin would make a sizzle, is that true?

No. You need a bird with 2 silkie feather genes and 1 frizzle gene.

Silkie to satin sill just make satins. Maybe some silkies if the satin only has one normal feather gene
