I have a few months to find this but I am looking for a Chocolate Wyandotte or a Chocolate Orp Rooster. I found someone that is 3 hours away from in KY that has a Choc Wyandotte Rooster but its a little more then what I wanted to spend on a rooster, I might even be willing to try my hand on hatching eggs. I am crossing my fingers my last shipping eggs didn't do well, I should be getting some Cream Legbars this week. There are just too many breeds I want now and it just keeps getting longer and longer 

Um, I just got some choc silkie eggs. Should have them in two days and then they will be in the incubator. So maybe if you can find some black silkie pullets we can trade and start from there. love someone else shares my passion for a choc silkie

Hehe. I'm hoping to get a couple blacks from my frizxled showgirls. Can you imagine a frizzled chov silkie or showgirl. So drooling right now. Plus I have my lav showgirl roo I'm going to put with my buff silkie. I've read you get some pretty chicks by mixing those colors.

look for a chocolate "sizzle" that is the term for the silkie x frizzle. the drawback to them is their feathers are very weak and are nearly impossible to show. they have to be penned seperatly, and not allowed to breed. especially if you have a double dominate frizzle gene.

I use to have sizzles, neighbors dog killed them. Neighbor didn't have dogs long after that incident.
