bantam rooster

I have two 16 week old Bantam Mille Fluer roosters that are in need of a home. They are sweet beautiful birds. Unfortunately I also have just one female(I was told they were all females). For her safety I’m looking to find a safe loving home for the boys. I have spent a lot of time with them and...

A couple weeks back, I posted about my 2.5 y/o bantam salmon faverolle roo, Oz, who had been vaguely "off." I'd since taken him to the vet, who concluded he had a heart murmur and would likely deteriorate over time. As a hail mary, I tried antibiotics, since I know some heart issues can be...

I recently posted about my 2.5 y/o bantam rooster, who had de-spurred himself. That all has healed up well but something more is off about him and I can't figure out what. A few days before that incident I noticed him slowing down--ex. being slower to leave the run when I let everyone out to...

Looking to rehome 12 week old gold Sebright bantam rooster. Located in enfield. We thought he was a she until he started crowing and unfortunately can’t have a rooster where we live. Will consider delivering as need gone ASAP. Very friendly, has been handled by toddlers since we got him.

I didn't know what to put this thread under, but I guess you could call this a chicken behavior! ☺️ Hello! I have a year old frizzle bantam rooster who is really mean to my hens. He is nice to me, but not to them. So, I will just make a list of all the things he does. -He focuses on breeding...

Beautiful Blue Mille Fleur Old English bantam cockerel (young rooster) that is just over 3 months old, purchased with a variety of bantam straight run chicks from a Texas hatchery. All were vacinnated for Merek's at the hatchery the day they hatched on April 28. I've raised them indoors in an...

Got 2 cute Barbu d'Uccle bantam cockerels (young roosters) that are just over 3 months old, that I purchased with a variety of bantam straight run chicks from a Texas hatchery. One d'Uccle is a golden neck (though he looks white) and one is a mille fleur. All were vacinnated for Merek's at the...

we recently got a batch of 6 chicks and one was a rooster. we live in an area with a lot of people and although our neighbors haven’t complained we think he’s a problem. we put him in the shed every night which is currently a hassle for us and we need to relocate him to someone who can either...

Hello I have yellow bantam rooster that I was wondering if there was a color variety for. I have seen pictures of roosters just like it before but they don't have a breed name with them so figured he's a mutt. Mother is a ginger red OEGB and father is a silver duckwing OEGB. Legs are yellow...

Background: I have a 1yr old bantam Delaware that is now (our RIR rooster died of a heart attack 3 months ago) our only rooster in a flock of 19. He grew up with our original flock of 14 RIRs, a d'Uccle, and a Leghorn and was the submissive rooster to the RIR. It took him about a month to...

I got a 4 month old bantam silkie rooster about a month ago (so now 5 months old), he's my first roo. He seems to be adjusting pretty well, he's pretty friendly and docile if not a little shy. Him and my silkie hen get along well and come inside every night. He doesn't explore much, he just kind...

We have two 6 week old cockerels and will have 6 hens total. I’ve heard that each rooster should have 8-10 hens, but with one being a bantam will I need more than that?

I have a bantam mixed-breed rooster with mite eggs all over his belly. I looked him over for any live mites and there were none. I dusted him, but I don't know how to get rid of the eggs. I read that people would pull the feathers, but there are too many to pull. Does anyone know of another way...

Buzz Lightyear has a habit of crowing at midnight when he hears the neighbors come home, so we are trying a collar to see if he crows a little softer. Of course I had to add a bowtie. I want to make a bowtie for Sheriff Woody as well, but he is such a good boy that I dont want to bother him...

I bought a pair of old English game bantams back a few months ago and I just recently lost my hen, my rooster is lonely and where he's so small I can't find him another mate or partner that won't be 2x his size. I just hate that he's alone in his little cage. Would you guys think he'd be okay...

Hello :) So, I have this bantam, he was my first rooster, and I've thought and thought and thought about rehoming him, but I just can't. I'm the only person in my family that can go into the coop without him hurting me. And not because he's not attacking me. I just understand how to act...

Does anyone have any experience with a Bantam Cochin fertilizing their LF hens? I have a Mille Fleur bantam Cochin roo, and I’d love to hatch some little barnyard mixes just to expand my own flock. I’ve only had my roo for about two months, and although he tries to breed my hens, watching him I...

I have a young Bantam rooster who I brought into the house when he was pecked severely by the others. While recuperating he developed a very severe case of mites which he must have had all along; however, while indoors he could not dust bathe. I treated the mite infestations with a drop of...
