Possibly a stupid question. But would it be very stupid to want to have a small rooster like a Silkie for my (now chicks and growing) sapphire gem hens? Reasons: Breeding smaller sapphire like chickens with the cuteness of Silkies but laying more eggs than silkies. And also because a smaller rooster seems like “friendlier” for the hen.
And if you think it would be a nice cross, then what kind of color rooster would it have to be in order to get mostly blues and buffs or splash and very few blacks? (I rather don’t have blacks because of the heat here) (Sorry for my limited chicken genetic knowledge.I’ll try to work on that)
