My little sisiter just got a little black frizzle. She was wanting more. What is the best breeds to breed with him? We think he is a bantam because he is small. I will try to get a picture of him later.
Thanks
 
Just do not breed to another Frizzle or you will end up with double gened birds which will have poor feathering!

Breed to a smooth feathered bird carrying the frizzle gene for the best results.

Here's an article.... http://www.feathersite.com/Poultry/CGD/Friz/WhatMakesFriz.html

Also
... Frizzled Cochin Bantams seem to be most common, though the frizzle gene can show up in or be bred into other breeds..... So I'm guessing it is a Cochin bantam. Get more cochin bantams to breed with, though you will get best results if you get either smooth frizzles from a frizzle breeder or breed your roo to cochin bantams and then breed the offspring back to the roo.
