I am new to chickens and can I say I am absolutely sold! I love them!!
I have fourteen Australorp beauties and am seriously thinking about breeding for Cochin Frizzle Bantams (Did I get that in the right order?). My question is if I ultimately want to get a Self Blue Cochin Frizzle what do I breed to get that?
I can Self Blue Cochins with Black Cochin Frizzles? Or White Cochin Frizzles?I know you can't go Frizzle to Frizzle or you get a "Frazzle". I know that Self Blue is not dominant. I also love just plain blue Cochin Bantams and would love to try to get some of those. I would love to get some input on this. I know with horses, black was not a dominant color.

Recommendations??

Thank you!

Self Blue X Black Frizzle or Black Frizzle X Self Blue. I wouldn't go with White Frizzles for this cross.
 
u well not get self blue the first time u have take black frizzle to self blue them breed those frizzle babies back to self blue
 
u can breed frizzle to frizzle just not too many time
breed friz to friz then breed those babies back to non frizzle
