Cute chicks. But to be blunt, crossing various breeds and colors, what you end up with isn't a breed but a bunch of barnyard mix mutts.

i meant people searching for what two breeds outcomes would be I couldnt find a wyandotte/speckled sussex mixed breed chicks pic all there seems to be is ee/silkie mutts so hopefully someone looking for an outcome of the two breeds I have mixed will get an idea on what to expect
