How long would it take to make new breed of chicken?

[supdude]

what would someone have to do to make a completely different breed of chicken? how many years do you think that would take? because i read how some people just developed RIR and jersey giants, so is anybody trying to make a completely new kind of chicken today?

I know there are alot of people on here trying to breed new colors in chickens but don't know of them making a new breed unless it is different crosses for meat birds.


Good luck, hope someone comes along and helps you.

Well... You could always just breed two different breeds together, making a mutt, and call it something special

But it would take many generations to get a uniform color and type from the offspring.
