I want to do a breeding project involving my dark cornish, but i cant think of anything... so can you give me some suggestions?

How about a White Rock? There would be some mighty tasty results, lol.

Dorking or RIR

What are you shooting for ? Meat birds, back yard layers ?

ok , I'll take a shot.

Layer - brown leghorn, light or dark your choice.

Meat - rock, partridge I think. or maybe sussex( might look kinda ugly, till the feathers come off)

Overall general purpose/decent looks - gold laced or blue laced red(preferably splash) wyandotte

Great ideas!

I think i'll try both the wyandotte, and the RIR mentioned by jarcoo... anymore suggestions (never can have to many projects

)

Wut do you guys think about a red jungle fowl for the cross (it would be hatchery stock so its not like its pure in the first place, so i wont be contributing to the downfall of the true RJF)
