i know who has both but the Wheatens are showable (only in AV or somthing like that )
and i was thinking brown reds , birchen and columbian i was told that you could breed them togeather and you get all 3 colors , but that in in OEGB ,so i will ask ,, will they ?

They will if you do it right, the trick is knowing what you will get from crossing gold and silver colors. Brown Reds and Birchins are gold and silver counterparts of the same pattern, so breeding a Brown Red roo to birchin hens will technically give sexlinks and the pullets will be pure Brown Reds and the roos will look more like Birchins but will have some gold leakage ( they will be split for both Silver and Gold genes)

Breeding a Birchin roo to a Brown Red hen with give pure colored birchin pullets and the same colored roos as the above cross.

Crossing Birchins with Columbians I believe should give half of both or either all birchins in the F1 cross but if you breed those birchin offspring together, they will produce some Columbians.

Hi! I didn't know you were a child. These Q's are often more revealing than they meant to be.
Why don't you choose what you like best?
Good luck with whatever you choose.
