I know they are a Bantam....but the Pyncheon is very rare in it's "pure" state.......some man made/crosses are out there. Probably thee oldest "American" Bantam.....and one of the rarest.

Such a beautiful male.......condition and color is exceptional. Referring to the Super Crele colored male.

I'm not too sure.....For certain I'll be hatching Mille Fleur, Porcelain, and some Whites. Maybe a few of the other project colors: Golden Neck, Blue Mille Fleur, Silver Mille Fleur, Black tailed Reds, and Black tailed Whites. I should also have about 50 Scottish Blackface lambs this Spring...

I never have.....but I suppose I could. I'm working with Silver Mille Fleur this year as well....Pullets look nice....working on the cockerels. I don't like to sell anything 'til I see what it's potential might be. Some birds start out looking good......and then later end up as flops.

I agree........I've had the Pyncheon breed for almost 20 years and have been raising livestock in general for 50 plus years. A lot of hard work and dedication goes into preserving and maintaining any rare breed of livestock...I also raise Scottish Blackface Sheep since 1996 and hope to keep...

Also...Pyncheons lay white to cream colored eggs and not green/blue. Your birds are still beautiful but not "TRUE" Pyncheons.

If I'm seeing the photo correctly...he looks to have a black breast and yellow legs...if so...he may be a Partridge Plymouth Rock.

"The eggs come out of where?"

"The eggs come out of where?"

Looks like it could be a Blue Cochin or Langshan...

Dk. Brahma male....for sure

If that's a single comb on her head and she shows the yellow legs..and she has red earlobes.....I'd say she's a commercial White Plymouth Rock.

Does anyone have or know of someone breeding Mille Fleur Leghorn Bantams? There used to be three breeders...but I believe they've all sold out.

Sorry...100% male....he's showing the pointed hackle feathers in the neck hackle and saddle area. He's already getting a larger red comb. His tassel feathers on the head show male as well...I raise a tasseled breed and the young cockerels heads carry the same characteristics as your guy.
