Blue Frizzle Cochin/Silkie rooster x buff Silkie hen

[Motherhen518]

Hey all!

I was just thinking earlier..

I recently took in a blue Frizzle Cochin x silkie rooster from a friend who couldn't keep him due to recent health issues. He is indoors for the winter as he needed a bit of tlc and needed to quarantine anyway. His health has improved
dramatically since being here and his quarantine is reaching it's end, I was beginning to consider which hen I would like to bring indoors to be his companion until springtime when they will be moving outside to join the rest of his new flock. I am torn between my two friendliest girls, one is a blue Silkie hen with slight buff leakage around her neck and the other is a nice looking pure buff hen. I am leaning towards the buff because she has been known to be the most welcoming of newcomers. I wondered though, if I bring her in for the winter and decide to hatch a few of their eggs just for fun what might I get from that pairing? Any hatched chicks would be added to my pet flock, I have my own separate breeder flocks but love hatching interesting mixes sometimes to add into the mixed flock. Curious what this blue Frizzle Cochin/silkie might create with a pure buff hen. I would like to add that I don't know the background of the rooster as my friend had only gotten him earlier last year from someone she knew, he does appear to have a few buff/reddish feathers around his neck and I do have a photo of his mother! No idea what his father looked like.

First two photos are of him after a bath when he first got here, he was molting. Last photo is his mother. He has fluffed up considerably since these photos and his comb is no longer pale.

My blue frizzle, is no longer with us, but she will be a grandmother since I have her daughter's eggs in the incubator. I doubt the chicks will be blue, but I would be over the moon if they are. I am also hoping for frizzle.

She was a beautiful girl fingers crossed you find yourself with a little frizzle in her grandmommas likeness

Breeding him to your buff hen you will most likely get blues and blacks with a lot of red leakage. since he's half Silkie the chicks could be frizzle, smooth, silkied or "sizzle" (silkied frizzle)
If you bred him to your blue hen you would get blue, black and splash. Again with leakage and same feather types as above

Thank you! This is exactly the answer I was looking for.
