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

Forest Hump called an alarm so all hens and Pullets are waiting while he makes sure it’s safe to come back outside..
And Forest Hump letting spooks know he isn’t scared..

Hm, stringy? I think I see what you're saying... More striking to me is his tail angle. In those pictures, he seems to hold his tail lower, more straight out than up, as compared to my pure OEGB boys. Much like how a Phoenix rooster holds his tail.

He must have phoenix in him. I looked at his tail feathers, & he still has growing shafts. I'm happy about that. I wanted a long tailed chicken.
He definitely has a lower tail carriage, & is a bit bigger then my OEGB rooster.

Good boy!! I love the second picture with the Silkie hen looking out the door like, 'Can we come out yet?'

I'm interested to see how long his tail gets as a mix!

Really beautiful coloring. I really like the white cape and saddle over top of that mottling!

He's a Silver Duckwing OEGB X Mille Fleur D'Uccle cross.

I'll be sure to post updates of Blue when he's looking even more pretty.

Thank you, I wanna make more of these OEGB crosses.
