Breed Details:
Cornish Bantams are miniature versions of their larger counterparts the standard cornish (large fowl cornish breed page) that are said to have been bred down their size using Asils, Old English Games and Malays (Source; Feather Site). Their original purpose was to have them be bred as superior fighting birds, but quiet the contrary happened, they ended up with a very people friendly bird and a poor fighter. Years and years later the poultry community has ended up with little wonderful birds that always look good a poultry show.
