    I have a question. I have some frizzled polish bantams and have heard I can't breed frizzle to frizzled. So do I put them with my other standard polish? What do I do about breeding them?

    I have always heard to breed frizzle to smooth too, but if you call McMurry Hatchery they will tell you the frizzle is a breed and you can breed frizzle to frizzle. ????

    You can go the polish breeders website and they have an article on how to breed frizzled polish.

    Frizzle is NOT a breed (in the US). It is recognised for ALL breeds by both the APA and ABA.​

    When Breeding Frizzles Your Best Results Will Be From A Frizzle Bred To A Smooth Featherd Bird.

    Frizzle X Frizzle Can Get Very Ugly [​IMG]

    Had A Friend Breed Frizzle X Frizzle With Her Cochins & They Featherd Out Very Skimpy & Patchy Through Out Their Bodies.

    You Could Practically See The Bare Skin OF The Bird, The Appearence Of The Frizzle X Frizzle Bred Flock, Looked Almost As If They Were Badly Feather Picked [​IMG] .
