Can DD show a Sizzle or a Frizzle in the fair?

[Camelot Farms]

Are they a recognized breed?

I'm confused as to what a sizzle is. I've heard of it before. I think it's a silkie crossed with something that's frizzled. Am I correct? If that's what it is then no, you can't show the sizzle. The frizzle, however, can be shown. All breeds recognized by the APA can be shown in frizzle. What breed is it?

I've seen frizzle at the county fair here. Sorry I can't be more help

yes frizzles can be shown. they are judged on the base breed. ie frizzle cochin,frizzle polish. we took to to the fair, everybody loved them.

All breeds, recognized or not can be shown. However unrecognised breeds cannot progress past BB. Showing unrecognizedd breeds is required for the recognition process.

A sizzle has all the features of a silkie except the feathers. A sizzle has frizzled, non-silkie feathers. It is a breed in progress.

Frizzle is recognised for every breed. A frizzled silkie would have feathers that are both silkied and frizzled.
