Do the off spring of this hybrid have similar traits to their parents?
Is there a breed that is the results of  mating these hybrids with each other?
I know the sex link coloration disappears.
But what about egg production,temperament,and foraging ability? Would these traits come through?
Has anyone tried this?

metzger farms states that mating these hybrids results in offspring not as good layers as the parents. don't know from experience yet.  how good of a layer are yours? I'm getting 10 in the spring!
