I'm starting with RIR. But I'm hoping to beg some people into selling me some Wyandottes and Silkies.

I like the pastel colored birds. Blues, Pinks, Greens, Grays.

As you may know, I prefer fancy-patterned pink and purple birds: http://poultryland.com/ranch.php?coop=1&user=14

I'm trying to find some good RIR studs with some of those barring/spangling/etc. patterns. There's a really nice red laced one for 8000

Crazy. Looking just now, I didn't see any good RIRs! I suppose you could outcross.

take a look at mine every now and then, I'm trying to get the egg grade up too, thinking about out crossing then breeding back...my really birds are not even laying yet, so this keeps me from getting to edgey when it comes to breeding...maybe I should get back into fish lol

I don't think you're supposed to do that. I won't report you though.​

We might have another Debiraymond on our hands if you keep this up!

If you cross a RIR with a different breed you get a hybrid. If you keep breeding back to RIR. Do you eventually make it a RIR again?

Yes, I can't remember how many generations it takes but they will end up pure.
