I want to create larger silkie chickens

[MysteryChicken]

My LF Silkie rooster. He's the father of my F1 Giant silkie cross.

big one in the back is my roo, the black and white one closer to the screen are my 2 girls. Im afraid of a JG really hurting my 2 girls : (

Ok. I just dont know how my teeny tiny 2 silky hen will get along with the jersey giant, im afraid the JG will kill my 2 only hens. They are really small.

Are you able to use AI?

Pretty birds.

I have another idea. Maybe pen your Rooster, with the Jersey Giant for breeding?

I mean do it yourself. It's tricky doing it on a bird, but it's one way.

Yeah! I'm sure the JG and silks will get along after meeting with each other. I put the JG in a cage with food and water fir the first day then I let the new chicken roam around and be in the flock, that's how interrogation goes so it docent get violent, right?

AI means Artificial Insemenation, I’ve never heard of it being expensive. But I also haven’t looked into it that much.

Introductions take longer then a day.

AI isn't expensive if you do it yourself and have someone help hold the bird.
