Are they smaller than Rhode Island Red hens?

Are they smaller than Rhode Island Red hens?

Yes considerably smaller. Silkies are more bantam size. RR are large fowl.

So would a Frizzle rooster do okay w Rhode Island hens? I might be getting one- neighbor asked if I wanted one. I have 4 Rhode Island reds and 1 barred rock

Smaller roos can do ok with larger fowl. I personally would not put silkie sized hens with full sized roos, but some do.

Good to know, it would be the only rooster though
