I agree pullet. She is one of the first non bearded sizzles i have seen, nice crest though.

here is my sizzle roo, he is the brother of the hen in my profile pic.

I'm calling his color birchen, do yall agree?

this is NACHOS!










I am planning on breeding him to these two ladies.

I choose this girl to breed more of the silkie "type" back in to his offspring.

I choose this girl to bring more of a crest, and the frizzle gene.
also I am hoping to create a white crested black sizzle,and silkie!

does anyone have any opinions on what I should change or do different? I am all ears!

What would you call this sweet girl? I'm thinking Frilkie? She's got great skin, comb, correct toes- very Silkie- but her feathers are different. I call her Not-Sizzle.

She looks like to me just a frizzled silkie.

So if I were to breed that hen to a curly Sizzle, what would I get?

The white frizzled silkie hen in the picture? She looks like she has curled silkie feathers, if you mate her with a curled sizzle you have a good chance of getting a naked or brittle feathered chicken. Bad for many reasons!! I would look for some nice smooth feathered birds to pair them up with. She's a cutie, but if it where me I would also look to improve crest size. She looks like an excellent start to a sizzle project!
