Japanese Bantam Thread!

Can anybody tell me if these 2 are Japanese bantoms I can get better pics if you need

They look like my sons Japanese. The last picture looks like the chick has long legs. Short legs are a requirement to be show quality.

Looks just like my two (chicks) I bought at a feed store 4 months ago and they are Japanese Bantam/white with black tails. They are both rather wild and literally flighty. They are best kept in a covered environment because they are not like other chickens, they will actually fly. My rooster can fly and climb the fence at the same time!

OK thank you. I don't have show birds I just got some mixed bantoms this year and had no idea what these two could be.

No problem Japanese Bantams are a fun breed they are loveable very social and if handled major lap birds lol. Enjoy them.

I'm hoping to get some opinions on if I have a girl or boy. My Japanese bantam is 3 months and 1 week old. Do you think it's a girl? Her combs gotten redder, but not grown much at all.

This is a pullet; most likely will be laying eggs in a month or less. Japanese bantams can mature quickly.

If I were you i would use the bird in the 1st picture. His legs look shorter and from the looks of the picture he has a shorter back.
