Well, currently I am married..........

If I let the chickens live in the house every winter I would be single.

Can anyone here point me in the direction of a Nankin breeder?

I bought mine from Ideal (hatchery)- I switched to RC due to cold. Doug Smith is another breeder, here in WA but IDK if he ships chicks- I have had his birds before and they were lovely.

I am having trouble finding this sweet little bantam pullets breed. She is about 7 weeks old. I was wondering if the hens get the black tail feathers at a later age and if anyone thinks she may fit this breed. If not does anyone know what she could be?

She is the smallest out of all the bantams we have this age.

I am going to guess bantam Buff Orpington. Single comb, white legs. Body type looks like BO.

Nankins have slate bluish legs.

This is just a guess!

Thank you I believe this is probably right.

Wow are those beautiful! In the first picture with the two hens, is one trying to brood the other?
