Bantam or Large?

[broodiehens]

Hi everyone.

So, I am purchasing a Golden - Laced Polish hen to show at my local poultry show.

On the registration sheet, I have to specify whether the hen is a Bantam or Large. The breeder told me that she is a "Standard" size.

I am confused as to what I should mark on the registration sheet because, Polishes are a small breed comparable to a bantam of a larger breed. But within the Polish breed, the hen is "Standard Size", and not a Polish "Bantam". ????

Which do I mark on the registration sheet?

Thanks

There are LF and bantam Polish.
If the breeder told you they were standard, then you need to mark it as LF.

There's a wide variety of sizes of both Bantam and large fowl breeds. Among large fowl breeds, polish are among the smaller. However, large fowl polish are considerably larger than Bantam polish
