Unusual frizzles?

[FunClucks]

I live in the uk. Plus not sure if they do but I disagree with breeding frizzles to frizzles.

Sorry, I missed you were in the UK. Meyer doesn't breed frizzles to frizzle (I disagree with that too), I think if you look they say there's some % chance that your chick will be frizzled, or it will just carry the frizzled genes. So you could buy 6 chicks and have some random number of them end up as frizzles.

You end up with some Frazzles ~ not good. Genetically they have problems & it's cruel on the chickens.

I had a frizzled Ayam Cemani pullet

I know there's someone on ebay who sells frizzled Ayam Cemani. Not sure if they're pure or have been outcrossed to get the gene into their Cemanis, but they claim that they're Cemanis anyway. I see their listings every now and then when I'm daydreaming at hatching egg listings.

The frizzled Polish I've seen have generally been large fowl. I've also heard of frizzled Plymouth Rocks.

Oh, and I saw frizzled Salmon Faverolles in show at some point in the past few years, too! The frizzling on their beards was spectacular!

Also, I believe it's @Ribh who I just saw post like yesterday about their frizzled Wyandottes. (Apologies in advance if I'm misremembering! I've blinked since then, so memory reset. )

Me too! Bantam. And the more common black Cochin bantam.

I’d like to know as well, so following. Frizzling is such a cool thing and it can be in any breed. It’s a wonder people don’t take advantage of it.

Yes, I have frizzled SLW & GLW plus frizzled D'Uccles. I started with a standard lavender frizzle [They're a certified breed in Australia, Britain & parts of Europe.] This is Portia, my SLW.
