Hi everyone! New member yet again (I was on here years ago) Anyways! This little boy was given to me as a chick. He’s 4 months old and SO tiny. I mean I’ve had bantams and I even had two house seramas but I wasn’t expecting this boy to be this tiny 😅 He’s next to an Easter egger who is the same age. Is he a game bantam? How big will he get? And how to I go about introducing him to the flock? I actually had to purchase more chicks halfway thru because the others he was raised with were picking on him so much. He’s currently housed with 2 month old pullets (I just had the older hen next to him for size comparison) Eventually everyone needs to be together but he’ll just get run over but the bigger girls 😕Hopefully this is an ok section to post my question under!

He looks a lot like what my Silver Dutch Bantam looked like when he was little... they're pretty tiny things, but your handsome little boy looks really tiny! He might be a different breed -- I'm not too good with breeds, really, and I think that there are several breeds with that coloring. Sorry that I couldn't be more sure.
Whatever he is, he's a very handsome little fellow!
