Well I am not sure about breeds.
I just found some bantam duck eggs on ebay.
and wanted to know how small are they
I used to raise chickens and there are bantam breeds that resamble the standar size but way smaller
If they are listed as just bantam, I would not bid on them. Easier to set, hatch and care for hatchlings if you know the breed, or mix if they are mixed breed.
x2 I would not buy them if it just says " bantams" that is not a breed, that is a class. Call ducks, east indies, mallards, mandrins, ect are all bantams. They could be mixes also. I do not reccomend buying any hatching eggs from ebay. Bantams are anywhere from 1-4 pounds in weight and the biggest are mallards, i think the smallest domestic bantams are either calls or east indies. If you want hatching eggs i'd get them from a certified breeder or a hatchery like meyers or murry mCmurry hatchery.
