Course they're edible. They're single serve though...

Hmmm, I have kept parrots with dust dander and have kept cats, is chicken dust that much worse? I could get a couple of air filters if that would make a noticeable difference?

Our first incubator died on day 20 and we had only one chicken hatch. She is now a house chicken. We don't notice the dander from just one chicken but I would recommend diapers!

Oh my god, they're so stinking CUTE. OK. I may need to order some bantams.

Also, LOL @ single serve. But at least they *are* a serving. With the quail it's 2 birds/serving.

This gal here is my Spangled OEGB Jace. I love her to bits!!

She's super opiniated and loveable, and will fly onto my shoulder in the morning if I don't feed her quick enough.

Yes, you need bantams!! The cockerels are rather feisty tho- I had one start sparring with my finger at 24 hours old. He has since grown up to be a nice guy, however...

What I want is EE bantams, which would be great for you if you wanted some coloured eggs and snazzy feathering...

I have some of these

Not when I'm barely making it thru the week with 50 lbs of feed!

With I could get by on 50 a week!

Maaybe once I find someone to take my extra hens.... (1 1/2 years old, laying. They're free, and NOBODY wants them )

Bantam would be fine. I'm not set on full size birds at all. Are there breeds of Bantam or is Bantam itself a breed? Sorry, I'm not a chicken keeper so know next to nothing about them. 

I'm working on bantam ee, mainly in chocolate color.

In not an enabler, I swear
