Bantams in the city backyard

[BullChick]

I hope you enjoy your flock as it grows and expands to three more coops.

Now I want to know if Aart is Dutch.

There are other explanations...but...
"Aart is one of the most artistic Dutch baby names. It is a short form of Arnold. Meaning ‘strong and powerful’ both Aart and Arnold are common in English and German speaking worlds. "

My screen name is just a mix of my initials.

Hi Marta, welcome in the welcome community on BYC.

Already met you in peeps in Europe. But here I could find out what kind of chickens you have.
Great name to remember Aart of the Dutch Sesame street. I have two Sesame streets names for my chickens too. Pino and Ini mini.

Naming them after Aart the chicken jugler. Who rises high like an eagle above the earth would have been fine by me too.
Wish you lots of fun and good advices in this world of chickens.

Hi and welcome! I'd be interested to know the name of those two colors too. If no one answers I'll go look it up. Many of my EEs (Easter Eggers) are patterned like that, I think it is called partridge but I'm not sure. Your girls are very pretty!

Nice to meet you Marta. The folks on "what breed or gender is this." seem to know a lot about colors as well. You may want to post photos there and ask them.

Welcome Marta! I love the breed Cochin bantams they are so sweet and mine love to snuggle. Brahmas are awesome too. I have only had LF in them but they are such sweet birds too. I hope you enjoy BYC as much as we all do!
