My yokohama bantam in the netherlands
 
400


Some more yokohama bantams. Accepted standard here says males max weight 900 grams and hens 750. In red spangled an white allowed with cushioncomb( flat no peacomb) yellow legs. Full saddle and tail wanted. Pearls sharply and clearly marked and the red brown as dark as posiible as they whiten with age

I prefer the cushion comb over the pea comb. You have stunning birds. Do you have fertility issues? Or diet issues? I am curious on these points as I have read they are problems here.

Diet issues not really. They eat a growers pellet( even adults) with about 5 percent of gammarus or dried meelworms. Add a handfull of mixed grains everyday per chick as activity and once a week some vegetables as lettuce and carrot with a little cat meat(low salt) fertility is about 80bpercent but they are prone to inbreeding as the base is so small.

Very interesting as I have read so much here about the normal diets killing them and low fertility... so I wonder what the heck is going on over here then.

Any how I think they are stunning.
