Bantam thread(including polish and silkies)

[Rock17]

I know other people have done this but none of them are active.
Please post pictures of your bantams. I have currently got a bantam flock of four that will soon increase to 6(7 but one is going to be a legbar). Note that this thread also includes diminutive large fowl like large polish and Chinese silkies. Also dwarf chickens like @MysteryChicken’s malay.

Most of my flock are big chickens but I have a few! This is Amelia she is a year old and I’m not sure what kind of mix she is but I’m pretty sure she is at least part silkie! She is a little under a year when I took these pictures.

This is Tilda she is almost a year old!

This is Belle Tilda’s sister for some reason they really don’t like each other She also is almost a year old but was much younger when I took these pictures. She’s not looking her best now as her and Tilda had a big fight.

I would love to see pictures of your flock!

Amelia is a silkie x frizzle pekin (I think). Thankyou for adding to this thread. My birds are looking ratty from the constant rain. Hestia my faverolle bantam is my avatar and my old avatar was my Chinese silkie artemis

Cool! What makes you think she is part pekin? I’m just curious to know!

Chickens eyes are really interesting to look at! Amelia hatched an egg I think from one of my other chickens. Well the baby Enola has green eyes. I think she got them from her dad I hope they won’t change! You can see her eyes in the one picture but they don’t look green like they do in person!

I think amelia is part pekin because of the frizzle gene. Also her shape (round and low to the ground) and wattles are very pekin.
