F1 Sizzle and F1 turken/silkie/polish cross? 🤷🏼‍♀️

[Kennas_Kritters]

So I recently got 4 new chickens (not counting the new chicks I got hehehe) and I cant quite figure out 2 of them. 2 of the frizzles (1 Male 1 female) are obviously pure frizzle cochin bantams. The other frizzle (4 weeks old) and the turken cross (5 months old) however....have me confused. The black frizzle (4 weeks old) looks much different from the frizzle cochins which I was told she was. she has a darker face/comb/wattles more like a silkie. Her eyes also had that kinda dark/black color like a silkie. Her legs are a dark greyish color. Her head has some feathers that kinda go up and curve on the ends. I think she may actually be a F1 silkie/frizzle cross. What do y'all think? Now moving on to the turken crossed with what I was told is polish.... obviously there is turken in there but while looking her over I noticed she has 5 toes like a silkie! To my knowledge polish don't have that right? Her legs are a lighter gray color kinda like polish legs sometimes are so maybe she has some polish there as well? She has almost like a light lacing pattern on her. What do you guys think? I am just guessing based off their looks. I want to use them in my breeding projects so I am trying to get a best guess as to what they may be. Thanks! ❤

I think the turken is a pullet and the frizzle is a cockerel? @Overo Mare

I would agree.

The sizzle (frizzled Silkie) is at least 2 weeks younger than we recommend for sexing. With those wattles though at only 4 weeks old - looks like you've got a cockerel.

Well dang. Am I at least right about "her" being a F1 sizzle? I'll post "her" again in a couple weeks when I can tell the gender for sure. What breed do y'all think the turken cross has in her?

 

[Painted Calls]

Pretty sure "her" is a "him". Go ahead and update us in a few weeks though!

No clue on the NN. Most likely a mix containing the NN gene.

Pretty. I have 2 NN and a rooster who is smooth but NN frizzle genes. some of his hen's eggs is in the incubator (blue CM) I hope to have blue copper maran/NN frizzle chicks.

If he is smooth feathered he does not carry the frizzling gene and will not produce frizzled chicks.

Even if you don't get frizzle chicks I would love to see some naked neck marans! Sounds like they will be interesting. Wonder what their egg color will be?
