Bantam thread!

[ChickenWhisperer101]

Oh! How’d I forget about silkies. My favorite is either silkies or d’ Uccles. This might change as they are only about 3 weeks.

Here’s a few pictures of my bantams.

This is my blue Cochin bantam-Bluebell.

I love bantams!!
I have had silkies for awhile and yes they are adorable fluff nuggets, but my new favorite is Hanabi, a red cochin bantam. My daughter named her, and her name means fireworks in Japanese (literally tanslates to Fire Flower) and she is a fire cracker to be sure!
She is super friendly, likes to jump up on my arm. Loves attention but also tries to pull off a freckle if she is so inclined. Has a very similar personality to my favorite hen, Frankie, who is also a lap chicken.
Hanabi is almost 10 weeks old now and is integrating into the bantam coop with some other juveniles. Last photo is her checking them all out!

My variety from the feed store, the golden sebright is a rooster and others are pullets. They are all about 10 weeks old. I’m new to chickens but besides these guys I also have 11 big chicks ranging from 6 weeks to 10 weeks old.

I love my 3 Dutch.

These are Toos and Jackie.

And I also have a Nugget.
I am looking for 2 more breeds. Do you guys have any idea's?
My Dutch weigh only 500 grams, so must be docile and or small.

SO CUTE! I love breeds that are lean, leggy and have those big eyes! So cute!
What is your climate like? Do you have anything particular you want in the breed?
From my batch, Calico Cochins and Silkies are my favorite. The Silkie loves to do zoomies, and the fluffy freaking feet on the Cochin are just to cute! They're so big he could practically swim with those things lol! I'll post photos of my little and growing flock today.

I love my bantams but nothing that resembles a floor mop or has feathers growing out it's toes so can't share that love I'm afraid but my dutch bantam's are great.
I've got the gold dutch - my quietest cockerel
the yellow dutch - bit of an annoying medium crow
and the cuckoo dutch - the loudest of the lot. These can do a proper cockadoodle doo whereas the others do more a Kaw-kaw.

More information as to your climate and what you want from your birds would be helpful.
Seramas, D'Uccles, and Old English Games might be good though.
