What do you have in your flock?

I have no idea what type of banty he's mixed with. I was just told banty. He's about 3/4 the size of my similar aged EE pullets (6 months).

Oh there's more lol. Lots more!

@nenebynature so glad to see you got more than one Ameraucana in your mixed flock. They and Araucanas tend to be timid and need other gentle companions to hang with in a dual-purpose mixed flock like yours. It's nice that you have a lot of space for them to roam in their "cliques" as hens seem to buddy up with another.

Nice dual-purpose/layer group with more than one gentle bantam in the group is ideal for the bantams.
