Should I breed these two

[Alwayswantchics]

I have a white cochin bantam rooster and a Wheaten old english bantam silkie mix hen. Should I have them as a breeding pair?

If you want to raise attractive mixes that will be excellent broodies, go for it.

Yeah go for it. Why not? Should make an interesting mix.

I would like pictures just because I love pictures , But I think it will make very cute and fun chickens so go for it.

Concerned she might go egg bound. He is so much bigger then she is.

The size of the rooster will not effect the size of her egg

I have the reverse... a tiny Serama rooster mate with my big Brahma hen... and believe it or not the eggs were fertile!

Thank you CayuseRanch. Very comforting.
