Frizzle silkie cochin?

[Mrsfantasia]

I got my Roo a year ago and they had no idea what he was. He has five toes and is so soft. I'm not sure myself but he is very different. I cannot find any like him. Thought maybe some one could give me their opinion.

Where did you get him? Looks like some silkie in the mix.

From a neighbor. Most definently silkie. Just wondering is there such a thing as silkie in other breeds?

I've seen a few hatcheries working on silkie feathers in other breeds. There's also showgirls and other various silkie mixes. I don't think any are actual breeds yet except the showgirls. Not positive though.

He really does look like a frizzled silkie! He’s probably a mix of things, definitely silkie in there, and possibly Cochin, because frizzle Cochins are pretty common.
