I am just curious about these guys. I bought the Silkies straight run and the EE's as pullets... The bantams were straight run too.

Thankx guys!

Ok, here's my go (except I won't even attempt the silkies LOL)

Fudge- boy
D'uccles- pair absolutely
Shoeshine- male, yep breed...no idea? Looks like a cross? Really neat looking though, I'll be interested what others chime in with.
SILKIES- never had one, wouldn't have a clue.. LOL
The EEs look good except "Legs" looks a little suspect... legs just look a little thick and big.

Ditto... and I agree that Legs is probably a roo!

sassy looks girly. Watch out for the comb and wattles though.

I thought he looked like a D'Uccle too but he's missing his beard/muffs and isn't quite as squarely built as a D'Uccle. Where did he come from? It's possible he's a Booted Bantam or a D'Uccle cross. I would lean more towards a cross given his build.​

Thankx guys! The bantam are all from TSC.... actually the bantam and all the silkies are from TSC. The EE's and BA's are from a local feed store.


I'm in the process of building pens for each breed/group... Anything I need to know about dealing with the bantams? I'm new to bantams... Thankx!

they need only half as much space as a normal chicken, so if you had say a coop that fits 8 standards, it could fit 16 or so bantys.
