hi Rachel im Rachel

love that frizzled

where did you get her.. how do you come to own a frizzle ??

Thanks guys, her personality matches her looks. I created her here. It all started with a light brahma rooster and a red frizzled cochin hen who had a love affair. The red frizzle hen passed away leaving 4 eggs in the nest. Having missed her soo much I hatched those eggs. I got 4 light brahma/cochin crossed chicks all looking exactly like their father. 2 were frizzled and one was partially frizzled meaning half of the bird was frizzled and the other was smooth feathered. Out of those 4 I got 2 girls and 2 boys. The boys were sold and I kept the 2 hens, one smooth feathered and 1 frizzle. That frizzle mated with my brown/red cochin rooster and little magnolia is the product of that
