Amers d’Anvers

I meant the freckles on her face but you know, with Moderns it’s hard to look away from those legs.

Ahhhh, okay! Those freckles are super cute, I didn't zoom in enough!

Some pretty birds! I haven’t ever seen OEG in person! They’re really pretty! That Sumatra is also gorgeous—but my favorite is that Brown Red Ameraucana roo He’s gorgeous! I too love the black freckles on the legs! It looks so cute! I really love Splash as a color on chickens, but especially in Modern Game. I think it’s that super tiny, tight feathering—makes it look so artsy somehow. That leggy roo looks young—cockerel? His little legs are soo skinny! My son’s MGB won Best in Division at the County Fair. He’s a nice super leggy boy too! I can’t get over how funny they look though haha. Legs for days!

Thanks for sharing! I love seeing other birds at shows!

I thought it would be a cockerel but I feel like the tag said cock.
I love splash too! MG are one of the few breeds where the color is accepted in the standard though.

It is!! Isn't she pretty?

Yes! So much fluff! Was she bantam or full size?

She looks to be a bantam! I have a little poofy white bantam Wyandotte and she's just adorable.

I have a blue laced red Wyandotte that is standard size (slightly smaller than my others), but built like a bantam. She’s a hatchery chick so I don’t really know what all went in to developing the color, but she looks like a giant bantam, lol! I don’t have any official bantams in my flock, yet, but they’re on my want-list.

Yeah, I have a gold laced Wyandotte that is built like a bowling ball The bantams are super small in comparison, but still built like heavy duty balls I highly recommend them if you enjoy their personalities! Bantams are wonderful!

OMG…I honestly did not think d’Anvers were a terribly broody breed…so I got lazy collecting eggs from their coop…

These are the 23 that are developing!! THREE hens were sitting on them…in July…in 105 degree weather. Crazy birds!!
