    Bantam chickens.. a friendly discussion about all pure and mixed breeds.

    I'm assuming you have a Porcelain d'Uccle rooster and the BBReds, Brassy Backs, and Barreds were the hens? If that's correct, then your orange chicks are from the Porcelain d'Uccle and BBReds. Porcelain in d'Uccles is Mille Fleur with the addition of the Lavender gene. Lavender is recessive, and...

    Look at that, my first 'love' react since the upgrade to allow them! 😍 Cuties! Looks like they inherited a lot of Sebright from their momma.

    Bantam chickens.. a friendly discussion about all pure and mixed breeds.

    Aw! :hmm Well, like you said, probably best not to have chicks this time of year anyway. :) I agree, winter can definitely leave! Any time now!! We've even had a pretty mild one here and I'm still sick of it! :sick Hope your birds (and goats ;) ) are doing well. Thanks for the congrats! I...

    Bantam chickens.. a friendly discussion about all pure and mixed breeds.

    Haven't been posts here in a bit. Hope all my fellow bantam enthusiasts are doing well! :frow How are your Chicken Little eggs doing, @chickens really ? My lovely little OEGB, Altair, laid her first egg yesterday, but that's about all that's been exciting over here. :P Wintertime stinks!

    Bantam chickens.. a friendly discussion about all pure and mixed breeds.

    Yeah, they can be a bit all over the place with those first eggs! :lol: Sounds like she's getting it figured out, though! I've only once had an eggbound hen, yes. Going on 15 years of chicken-keeping, though, so if that's any indication it's not a very common thing to happen! Liquid calcium...

    Bantam chickens.. a friendly discussion about all pure and mixed breeds.

    Haha, I love this, too! :D Yup, this happens sometimes with first-time layers, nothing to worry about as long as it's not excessive. :) Haha, cute little guy! :love Love my little Sebrights! My last one is a Silver hen, just like him but with a smaller comb. :D They're something else with...

    :ya Yay!! Congrats! You're probably swimming in bantam eggs by now, huh? :p Haha, she definitely looks it next to Vega, huh? :gig Love those tiny OEGBs. :love Aw, I'm sure they're flattered. :lol: I'm never sure if my Silkies are 'pretty' enough to share. I've had them bashed pretty hard...

    Bantam chickens.. a friendly discussion about all pure and mixed breeds.

    Some of my bantams yesterday! :D Mostly OEGBs because they're so small and I'm head over heels for them. :love One of my large fowl Black Copper Marans hens even posed nicely next to Vega, one of the OEGB pullets, so I could show just how tiny they are :P Vega really stole the show...

    Bantam chickens.. a friendly discussion about all pure and mixed breeds.

    Thank you! :) I love them. So sorry about your injury! :hmm Bantams are definitely fun and, depending on the breed, pretty low-maintenance compared to their large fowl counterparts. I don't think you could go wrong with either choice, though my personal preference between the two would be...

    Bantam chickens.. a friendly discussion about all pure and mixed breeds.

    :frow Belated, but from me, too, to those of you who celebrate it! :D Here are some of my safe bantam chickens a few days ago. :P Fawn SDW OEGBs. My girls Vega and Altair, and then the boys Toli, Acher, and Rigel (the Khaki). The boys are shedding tail feathers and regrowing them, so their...

    Bantam chickens.. a friendly discussion about all pure and mixed breeds.

    I love their little dogpiles when they're young. :love Yes, my teeny-tiny little angels will accept no less than to be lifted to their perch every night, even though they're more than capable of flying that high. Delicate little darlings that they are. :love I have never tried this, either...

    Oh, okay. Thanks for the explanation. :) :love :love :love Cutie! :love Seems like my bantams tend to be early crowers, too. My bantam Cochins usually start at a couple days old! :th

    Wow, is that whole big building in the back your coop?! :ep Any more pictures of your setup? :pop Lovely birds! Your rooster is so handsome! :love What breed is the hen to the right in this picture I quoted? I love her shape; reminds me a lot of my Dorkings with short-looking legs and a nice...
