No, Chickens can crossbreed between Particular breeds, for instance a Rhode Island red could Fertilize the eggs of a Leghorn or a Marran and the offspring would have the characteristics of each breed. In actual fact the hens that are used in Battery farms are whats known as Highsex... they look similar to a Rhode Island Red but they have been specificly Crossbred and interbred to produce a chicken that is the most prolific layer.

How do you cross breed chickens to get a pure breed?

It is a long process and can take years. You need to have a plan detailing those traits you wish to attain or remove from you breeding stock. Begin with the best birds that you can get. It's easier to start with quality chickens than to breed unwanted traits out of a poor quality grandparent flock of birds. Keep accurate records to control mating. Identify and mark the best of the birds with the qualities desired. Never keep chickens with unwanted traits, cull or separate those without those desired traits.
