What are some of the WORST breeds or genetics(frizzling, rosecombs, muffs) that you’ve encountered in the poultry world that can absolutely make or break a breed

Sizzles.

Sizzles.

Any reasons why?

Breeders not understanding frizzle genetics and as a result me having two different frazzles from two different breeders. It’s sad to watch their feathers break off and really sad when they die prematurely.

Both our frazzles were Silkie cockerels… the one good thing about a frizzled Silkie is they are even less able to gain any sort of lift/take off and so aggressive cockerels can’t attack much higher than ankles.

Human aggressive males. I don't care how pretty they are, a human aggressive male is just a waste of space, and shouldn't be kept for chicks
