Hi, I thought I would introduce myself (I did post a thread last night about sexing my chicks and am made up with how welcoming you all are).
My name is Debbie and I have kept chickens for 3 years now - it started as a school project, we hatched some chicks, kept them at school and looked after them there for a while. But sadly the interest was lost and it was only myself who cared for them.
So I brought them home - 4 lovely little Pekin Bantums. (My husband was in shock for a little while).
My Hubby then made them a much bigger run in our garden - will post a pick.
The following year at school we hatched more chicks as part of our topic in class. I then kept two of the chicks and added them to my flock. The rest went to a lovely farm - so all good.
And now I have two more little chicks at my house who were the only chicks to hatch out.
Took some convincing but my hubby said I can keep them.
Now I am really worried as one looks very Cockerel. But I am going to wait it out as long as I can. They live in my house at the moment as they are only tiny.

I have two daughters who adore the chickens and carry them around and give them lots of cuddles when ever they can.

So that is me!

Oh also I have no idea what kind of bantums each one is - they are all different so I will pop a post on with pics. Maybe some of you lovelys might help me out x x x

You can also post at "what breed or gender is this." But you came here first, we want to see pictures too

I love banties, I think because I am very short, and they have big bird attitudes.

Welcome to Backyard chickens. Hope you enjoy it as much as we do. As the day goes on more greeters will be responding to you. Some of them breed Bantums so may be able to tell you what you've got.
 
Welcome to BYC, Debbie. Glad you decided join our flock. Raising chickens is a wonderful experience for children. My granddaughter (pictured in my avatar) loves our chickens. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have. We are here to help in any way we can. Good luck in your chickens all turning out to be pullets.
 
Good morning and welcome to BYC!

It's easy to get hooked on chickens, they are interesting and fun animals to have. I've never had bantams but would like to see your photos too.

Nice to have you join us!
