I had barred rocks to start with too so I had lots of questions so you're not alone

I still have lots of questions. I love this site! Bantams are definitely a lot lighter. My silkies are like picking up a bag of marshmallows lol they definitely eat and are never sick so I don't worry about it. They're just not 'meaty'

I'm glad I'm not the only one!
Yeah, she does eat, but not a lot. She doesn't like grass!:0

Mine don't either but they keep my yard weed free! As I've never eaten grass or weeds I'm not sure what the flavor difference is but it must be there because they decent on every weed sprout that dares show its foliage and eat it down to the roots
