My silver sebrights are 4 months old and 6 1/2 inches long...they are so small! I know they are bantams...but I didn't expect them to be THAT small! I don't mind...but I do have a concern. My cats don't bother my regular sized chickens, though they love to hunt sparrows...I am wondering if my cat(s) will think my itty bitty sebrights are sparrows and perhaps attack them. I do have a golden sebright rooster. Also, I have a d'uccle. Would the cats bother any of these breeds? Will they get bigger?

Yes, cats will go after the smaller sized chickens......You do have to take extra precautions with the bantams. They are easily preyed upon. Even when they are fully grown, their small size makes them easy to grab by a cat or fox or hawk.......

Wish I had better news for you.
