Dutch Bantams Breed Thread

Is this a dutch bantam hen? If so, what kind?

Or could she be an old english game hen?

Thanks. A friend found her in his backyard and brought her to my house. I have standard size chickens and had no idea what she is.

I just started a little flock of 6. 3 Dutch bantams and 3 American Gamefowl. I didn't choose these breeds in particular, it's just what the local farm had, but I'm very excited about the Bantams! They are about 3 weeks old I think, and one is starting to develop his comb I'm completely new to raising chickens, and can't wait to watch them grow and thrive <3

This is Beauty, the one I think is going to be a roo.

This is Darth Vader

This is the rest of the brood, with the other Bantam on the left, named Optimus

What do you suppose the older three are, then? I'm not knowledgeable on breeds at all, I was just going on what the lady from the farm that we picked them up from said.

The black boy has a rose comb, but doesn't look right for a wyandotte. The rest I can't tell you at that age. Are you sure they are 'pure' breeds? If they are then it will be easier as they get older.

Not likely to be pure bred at all. They came from someone who had a small farm, and just had extra chicks to sell. She says the older ones were dutch bantams, and the younger were american gamefowl, but I guess I'll just have to wait and see. Definitely not Dutch, though, right?

Hi Dale. I see that you a male Dutch and a few hens on the roost as I visited your website. Aren't they CLB. If it, they seem more of goldish and CLB instead the CLB color. But, I'm interested for a pair like the one you have on your website.
