What breeds are we? Frizzle?

[Basskids08]

I ordered these from a breeder and said I wanted frizzles. Does anyone know what these are? They are about 7 weeks.

I'm asking about all 3 of them!

The barred one looks like a sizzle, the red one a silkie, and the black one I don't know but I will guess... black houdan.

The Partridge colored one looks like a pure silkie, the other two look like they crossed [a] Cuckoo Silkie hen to a [1x]Frizzled [probably gold laced] Polish or a Silkie cross [possibly Frizzled Cochin, but the crests look too big] roo, and you got a frizzled male and a non-frizzled female from that cross [with Black sex link coloration.]

They look like a good base trio[if the Partridge Silkie turns out female] to breed more frizzles/sizzles with, if you are able to keep the roo and hatch your own eggs.

Only one has 5 toes

I would bet they have been crossed for more than one generation and some of them lost the five toed trait[it's dominant so with enough out breeding it would disappear]. Especially if the one looking like a pure silkie does not have 5 toes[because the silkied feathers are recessive and can't show in a first gen cross].

I'm going to check again right now and let you know, thanks!

Ok Griffinsong, I went and checked and the partridge one and the cuckoo looking one both have 5 toes, and the black one has 4, does that change what they are?

 

[Griffinsong]

Hmm, the Partridge one is probably a pure silkie. The Cuckoo one is most likely a Silkie x frizzled Polish or Cochin and the black one might be a Polish cross, if the legs are feathered, maybe crossed with a Cochin or Silkie-cross.

They're all some degree of Silkie or Polish at any rate XD.

They all have feathered feet
