I have just noticed this thread! Very cool! I have some bantam Langshans as well as bantam Speckled Sussex. I have only seen these shown once in all my time and I bought the birds that were shown. Trying to find some good ones without help was a heck of a time and I got lucky in that I knew what I was searching for. I found birds of the same line after quite a bit of research and then had the birds sent to me. Unfortunately, that breeder has also dispersed their flock as well.
Please feel free to comment on these as I am more than open to any ideas you might have. I have decided to keep all the pullets from the breeding that look promising, the cockerel are another matter and I am unsure as which male to keep.
I tend to like the birds that have a more bantam Rhode Island Red type, which makes it a bit difficult to choose the right male as the tail angle messes me up! Gah! Fun breed, I'll give them that and SO much cheaper than the largefowl!
