    Review by '' on item 'Dutch'

    I have light-brown variety. These birds are curious, very quick learners, and friendly. Great for kids, as pets or house chickens. They are small, even for bantams.

    Dutch gender?

    So, I got this Light Brown Dutch chick, and now at 3 months old it looks just like the dutch hen that I have. (Just a smidge smaller, but otherwise the spittin' image). At what age will it start to look different if it's a rooster?

    WANTED: Dutch bantam eggs or chicks

    I am in NH/VT area. Any color is fine. I have one and she is so smart, friendly and pretty! Might start by purchasing a dozen. Sexed chicks would be splendid, of course, in which case I would include 1 male.
