Is silkie Jersey giant possible?

[TinyRaptorDodos]

I was thinking about getting a jersey giant hen or pullet once I have space… but would I ever get fertile eggs from her? My rooster is a pure blue silkie, so he’s small, he does good with my other hens and he’s still young (6-8 months) but with the size difference would be even try? Or would he lose motivation since I already have fifteen other hens?

He might or might not try, and he might or might not be successful.

Depending on who he likes, you may need to pair him off with just your favorites if you have the space.

They all free range, space issue is more of not enough roost for more chickens, he seems to not have favorites other then the other two silkies, I do plan to get a Pavlovskaya rooster eventually since they’re another docile breed but I think a silkie jersey giant would be adorable

I've never know any red-blooded male of any species that wouldn't at least try
