crosses

[lovepolands xox]

I have a gold laced frizzle Poland cockerel and a silver laced Poland cockerel and I was looking for suggestions of what hens would look nice crossed with them. Any suggestions?

more gold laced and silver laced polish hens?... due to the nature of the gold laced genetics if you cross it with anyother hens the chicks will comeout looking like Birchen or gold birchen birds most of the time.. their lacing needs to have the genes in homozygous state to produce more laced birds,

Maybe to Rhode Island red, this would produce Red laced looking chicks.. Thats because ER is dominant over eWh and ey and RIR have CO, which is need it to produce Lacing on ER birchen background a cross to Delaware would produce a similar results excep it would produce more silver laced birds and with Barring..
