In about 2-3 years, I'll be creating a new Breed of chicken called the Emerald Dragon.(Discussion)

What do you think about a new breed?

Blue, lemon, silver laced, and buff. If you could?
Why not have a silkie version, who wound not wont that.
Probably a bit laye, for dropped from the thread, just know silkied feathers and long feathers do not go hand in hand. Neither do frizzles. They both make the tails way more delicate. That's why all the silkies and Frizzled you see have shorter feathers
 
My boy SnuggleBug has always had a longish tail, same with my tallest silkie rooster Scaredy. Scaredy's tail feathers got broken thanks to a Guinea that likes biting chicken tails.
Here's SnuggleBug.

The regular feathered chickens in the same coop as Scaredy has broken feathers too, so he's not the only one. Silkie feathers aren't really much more brittle then a regular chicken feather.
 
That sounds really interesting. I guess I never put much thought into cross breeding. Though I do have all colour varieties of Sumatra , silkies and Easter Eggers. Now you have me thinking what I can come up with lol
