I have frizzles I think? I got them from a neighbor and they are all so different she has no idea either LOL The black one is super soft and curly getting curlier and curlier as he gets older. They are all 11 mo. Would like to breed them but I'm new to all this I have some regular silkies I could breed with them? The tricolored one has this weird looking comb and the other one has a walnut obviously they are both roos. The buff colored female used to have a ton of feathers and I believe she molted? And now she's very tiny. I don't know what's up with that but her attitude seems to be fine. So I have a before and after a shot of her. Hope she's not sick or something? The last one came with the rest of them but she's way way bigger. She's very curly! I think they're all just so cute and I'm super excited about possibly breeding them.
If you can tell me what kind they are that would be great! I've been reading a lot of the posts and everybody is so smart on this site!

Do NOT breed frizzle to frizzle! You will get a frazzle & all sorts of health issues. It would be irresponsible & cruel imho. A regular rooster should give you 50/50 frizzles & regular. I don't understand all the genetics but do your research & breed responsibly.
 
Very pretty. I have 2 frizzles. These were the daughter of my avatar, I still have one she is "Nell"

And my NN frizzle "Fancy Nancy."

She lays a green egg. I will breed them with an olive egger rooster I have, Just because he is ready to breed. Eventually I will breed them with a LO/EE rooster. They are both smooth.

Totally missed that OP wanted to breed them. Definitely don't do that. Frazzles have so many health issues, it's cruel to breed two frizzles together.
 
Ok thanks so they're all frizzles?
Is the black one A different kind of frizzle? His feathers are very soft and curly like the buff one or are they all just silkie frizzles it's so confusing I have a few regular silkie Roos and some silkie hens so I will make sure they are separated thank you so much!

Oo colored eggs if mine is an Easter Egger maybe I'll get something like that

Some of the silkies are regular silkie frizzles, and some are satin silkie frizzles.

Yes, I have frizzles too. I had a standard breed Lavender [they are a breed out here] & presently 2 Wyandotte frizzles & 2 D'Uccle frizzles. I love my frizzles! 🥰
 
That's great that I have frizzles! I'll be very careful when breeding so far they haven't figured out how to do that🙄🫣they sort of get on top and then roll off because they're so fluffy and they can't figure it out. Boys will be boys! 🤣
