Hoovers Hatchery bantam identification

[NewJourney]

She is a spangled old English game bantam

Thank you. That's what I expected her to be, especially now that she's older and is nearly fully feathered. Her face shape and body size looks to me like an OEGB, but I have only had ONE OEGB survive to her age (and beyond) thus far. I've had a very difficult time raising bantams (assorted breeds) from a local seller (I will never buy from her again, all her chicks and ducklings were ill with respiratory illness) and from the assorted bantam bin through Hoover's Hatchery (or Privett as is likely the case with this one that remains with us). I'm so thankful she's growing up nicely. She's beautiful.

Just a few days ago I bought four mixed breed bantam chicks from a friend who told me three I chose are Silky mixed, and one is Barbu D'Uccle mixed. I'm so excited to see them continue to grow.

I have standards and bantams but thinking of rehoming all standards except my gold polish hen since I’m only supposed to keep 5 hens so it would be my favorite bantam hens..til next year when I get more bantams as usual
