I gots my junior flier Alex the Chicken.
He's real snuggly and tame. I couldn't find bantams so my parents bought me this instead.

It's the traditional Malaysian "Kampung Chicken". It's male too, just like I want it. He's gonna grow up to fly in the skies.
Hope I'm in the right thread tho.

Cute!

Are you only keeping one? That might not be a good idea as chickens are flock animals and easily get stressed when they're alone. If you get more then get at least 4 females😉
 
Adorable! That's a new breed for me. What will he look like when he's grown?

I agree with @Silkie Princess . Having only one is hard on both you and the chicken. The chick probably already cries if you leave it; it needs constant companionship. Do you have a coop, or will you keep him in the house?

He'll be kept in the house. I have a box for him and it's always scorching in Malaysia so the temp should keep him warm
 
If you let him walk around the house, you'll also be picking up poop every half hour or so. Some poops will be cecal, which are very smelly and wet. Check out chicken diapers, if you have them there. Otherwise, keeping him in a cage is not good for him. He will want to scratch in the dirt, and take dust baths!
