Not absolutely sure yet. Definitely some black diluters going on, pumpkin for sure, possibly others. Momma is recessive/sex linked chocolate, dad is pumpkin splash but no history to know if he also carries chocolate. He's very diluted. Momma is deep dark chocolate. If it's a cockerel, it will be a chocolate carrier for sure.

Could you describe the quietness of your serama's crow to me. Also if someone can describe a "muted crow" to me, it would be great. Since most of you are breeders, I hope this will sway my mom to letting me get some serama roosters and hens to breed!

My Serama's crow as loud as any large fowl rooster. Very loud. Most of the time, they start out with this little baby crowing but as they mature, so does the crowing'

I am sorry to tell you but you have been took, those are not Serama but Old English Game Bantams. I raise show seramas and I use to raise OEGB. I am sorry someone sold you those as Seramas, I would request my money back and make sure to buy from an honest person. Sorrry

Hello All, I don't pop up on here often but I have a Serama question. My Serama hen just started laying at the beginning of the month and she has already gone broody. She was laying every other day, and sometimes back to back, now nothing, she will not get up for two days, and she's all puffed up. Is this normal so soon, and any suggestions for what I could do? Scooting her out is not working. Any feedback is greatly appreciated.

Yes that can be completely normal for a newbee egg layer to go broody. I think it is just all the new hormones kicking in.....When I have broodies, I just let them be but pull them out of the box to eat/drink and stretch their legs....I know others with chime in with different veiws.....
