Dutch Bantams Breed Thread

[EpicBlueAcres]

I to am interested in the color name of that white with black spot hen, it looks just like a rescue bantam I took from a rundown farm just before she died. She is now thriving and such a good girl but I never was told her breed or color.

Hello!
I have recently bought two bantams, but i am unsure of the breed. A few people have suggested they could be splash dutch bantams, I haven't a clue. Here is a picture of them, if you know what they are that would be much appreciated!


Thank you!

Sorry, not Dutch. Wrong shape for a Dutch in both body and head. Also, Dutch have white ear lobes.

Actually they look like bantam Orpingtons.

Dutch have white lobes, those don't. Beyond that they bear no resemblence to Dutch in terms of type. Whoever "suggested" they were Dutch Bantams was clearly guessing with no knowledge to back up the guess.
My guess would be mutts.

I know they are not Dutch. Yes, it was just a guess. Oh right, they could be.

My Blue Boy and his ladies. His color doesn't show good in this pic.

These were taken a month or so ago.

As he has gotten older he has had more cream color and pattern come in in his feathers. He came out of a group of assorted bantam. I believe he is a Porcelain Dutch. Its hard to see but he has white ear lobs.

He has the sweetest personality. I open the coop door and he flies out and sits in my lap. I haven't been able to find any pullets to go with him, but have rescued these girls. I'm not sure if the pullet on each end is Dutch. He doesn't seem to mind the difference. He has started to try to crow. I just love this little guy and thought I would share.

Does anyone have a picture of a yellow partridge hen? And what would the results of a cross between a gold and yellow partridge be?

Also, can a pair of gold ever produce a yellow, is it something to do with recessive genes maybe?

I believe that in the US, what I call gold is light brown and yellow is cream light brown if that helps!

I agree, my black Dutch chicks look very much like her Darth..
