Thanks for the info! I will be sure to read up on it before I ever consider hatching any of their eggs, which will be a while anyway since they are new to me. Poor little chicken! I certainly don't want to create those! I actually know very little of the Frizzle and have never owned one but am certainly excited to be adding some to my flock!there are some great articles if you do a search. unfortunately my brain doesn't retain details well anymore ( especially when I have a headache like today) but the articles cover the frizzle gene and how many are too many, things like that. I know of one person that has a "Frazzle" and the poor little things feathers break off so easily, she was worried it wouldn't be able to handle cold weather she's so bald....I had read that the genes that cause the damaged feathers can affect the health of the bird....but I don't know! the little chicken I referred to doesn't have any other issues but she's "ugly"
