Mystery Bantam

[jellybeanchili]

This is Allspice. Allspice comes from the "Hatchery Choice Bantams" bin at TSC. The local TSC here gets their chickens from Hoovers, and I have combed through their site as well as catalog and I cannot find a bantam chicken like Allspice that they sell.

My apologies on not having great photos of her, she is very shy. Her tail was plucked out when she was 8 weeks old, she is now 21 weeks and I hope she regrows it after her molt. She is larger than my other three bantams (2 D'uccles and an OEG hen), but significantly smaller than my standard chickens.

I just want to know her breed or type, and what her color is called.

Thank you very much.

She's an Easter egger. They are mixes with all kinds of colors. This one is mostly silver in color.

That's what I originally thought, but Hoovers website doesnt have EEs as bantams and I think that just threw me off.

I love EEs, I currently have 4 standard. I really enjoy how different each chicken looks. And it is very exciting to know that Allspice is most likely the mini version.

Thank you.

Sometimes they have low quantities of breeds that aren't listed on their website. She's definitely an Easter egger bantam.
