    Nankin Bantams

    Ideal claims that their birds (nankin) are purebred but that they don't guarantee show quality. I know others say that their birds are mixed but that doesn't make sense to me. Why would a well established hatchery risk everything by faulse advertising about rare breeds. And why would they want...

    What breed is this bantam?

    Here is chick #3 - it's the smallest and mostly buff. She has a flat comb, not a single comb like the others. I do wonder if this one is a Nankin.

    What breed is this bantam?

    Maybe I have a buff old English game (the first one). It does have pink legs. The other two chicks have kinda pink-grayish legs. Here is #2 - this one has lots of black.

    What breed is this bantam?

    Cyprus, you may be right. I have two more that are similar, one with more black speckles and one that is almost completely buff And has a rose comb (I think - don't see any comb really). These were the tiniest chicks of all the bantams.

    What breed is this bantam?

    Yeah, I have standard buff orpingtons and this chick looks nothing like them - it is a bantam though, not sure if that makes a difference.

    What breed is this bantam?

    Thanks for the replies everyone. I got this chick from the assorted bantam bin at the feedstore. I think they ordered from ideal. They are super cute and I'm pretty sure the ones I got are girls as the boys had very noticeable large and red combs already.

    Update: the white Silkie just squated for me at 10 months old. Should be getting eggs any day now! The partridge is still keeping me in suspense.

    silkie sexing

    Has anyone ever accurately sexed a Silkie via the distance between the pelvic bones? I have read that females will have a wider space than the males. This only works if the bird is closer to laying age though. So is there any truth to this?
