    What breeds did I end up with?

    The first one was in the bin of silkies. I picked out what I thought might be a frizzled silkie. However, to me she looks like a frizzled cochin.

    Polish?

    I bought this chick as a Polish pullet. A vet tech told me she’s a spitzhauzen (sp) What do you think? Do I give her perogies or schnitzel? Please correct my spelling.
