Probably a dumb question

[Pequena Bandada]

Will a bantam rooster over a LF hen create medium sized chicks? Or will some be bantam sized and some larger?

In case it matters, we have Belgian Bearded d'Anvers rooster and our hens are a mixed bag - Australorps, Easter Eggers, Wyandotte, Salmon Faverolle, etc.

Thanks!

I dont think your question is WHAT will happen, so much as it is *IF* it would happen. That would be like a weiny dog trying to breed a great dane. Its a long way up there...​

i've had it happen. My only feather footed roo was a Bantam Cochin and i hatched feather footed Sumatra chicks. They were about half the size of a Sumatra, so about medium sized.
