When getting a rooster, keep in mind that a bantam has a higher pitch crow which in some cases is worse than a regular rooster. Silkie bantam hens go broody often, are excellent mothers, and are light enough to hatch quail eggs without breaking them. Best of luck!
Thanks for the information, I was looking at some old english bantams and seramas to start out, and also maybe later down the line phoenixes and brabanters.
