Hello, this is more of an experimental breed project.
Birds for the project includes:
Silver Duckwing OEGB/Mille Fleur D'uccle X Silkie rooster
Cracker Hens(Red JungleFowl/American Game crosses)
And a Black Sumatra hen. (Updated Picture Needed)
(I may include a Silkie/CrackerFowl hen, I have but she's none crested.)
This project is to create a Gamefowl like bird, but without the Gameness. I want it resemble a Flarry Eye Grey.
(I wanted to wait to get Greys for this project, but decided to experiment with what I have first)
Differences will be Deep Red Eyes, walnut comb, Gypsy face, feathered feet, & polydactly. Maybe a half beard, or muff if I decide to keep that trait.
Project probably will start sometime next year, if not the following year.
Any overly aggressive cockerels will be culled, if produced.
The breeding order would go something like this:
OEGB/MF/Silkie X Cracker Hens
F1 Rooster(s) X Sumatra Hen
F2 hens, Back crossed to Grandfather, & F1s.
(Only the best looking/behaved will be chosen from this process)
Traits wanted: Survivalist, Crested, Light Weight, Good Fliers, Crested, Gypsy Faced, Walnut Combed, 5 toes, Black to Grey shanks, Silver Duckwing, or Silver Neck Blacks, Deep Red eyes, (Maybe a Beard), Feathered Legs, Friendly, Broody, White to tinted eggs, & Weather Hardy.
Purpose: Ornamental.
