They eat considerably more than my other mixed breed bantams. Also are very aggressive when eating, trying to hog it all. Is this typical behavior for this breed? They are approx. 1 year old.

Ok, the little bulb one is correct. So the cheapo Walmart is not plus I looked at directions and there seems there is not any way to correct it. Can I trust the hygrometer reading for the humidity on that one since the temp. is not correct?

The small thermometer that came with the Brower shows 99.5 and the digital shows 92.5. I don't have a 3rd one so what do you suggest I do? Thank you.

Quote: The bantams rarely go broody also? I found one person in TX. with hatching eggs (bantam)

Does anyone know if there is such a thing? I love the low feed consumption of the bantam but I don't get eggs when the hens are sitting on eggs, golfballs or empty nests.Yeah, I want it all. So, which bantams are the least likely to all go broody? Thanks.

Dipsy Doodle Doos' comes real close. I will run across it again someday. Does anyone know what kind of roo is in her avatar? Fantastic cool "hairdo".

I :|can't find it now but the chicken had part of the crest going straight up and a part going straight out about ear level -One on the left and one part on right at a 90 degree angle.. Just wanted to know what kind of chicken it is.

Quote: That's probably right. They are working on the breeding, not yet accepted into the APA. They are the ONLY ones working on the breeding? I'm not interested in showing, just liked the looks of Lightning.

I need to find some eggs or a breeder closer to me than NC (I'm in se MO) Also need someone who will send eggs when my broodies get started setting. Please let me know ANY info you may have on this breed. Thank you, Wanda

Or fairly close where eggs won't have far to travel? Thanks.
