I also see that is that normal or what is it?

No, its not normal

The points are caused by imperfections on those who created him and so on. He wasnt bred by good stock, rather lower quality stock. I bred my high-pointed rooster to some less than crap-shoot hens, and some.. odd balls are the result, but their my oddballs and I love em', lol. Oreo is the love of my life when he decides he wants to be held for two seconds.

You mean the points being "fused" to each other? Its a flaw in the comb. My own BR Zane has a couple that are not completely separated from each other, but it still counts as two points rather than one.

I love him! He looks great!!!! I don't know how common bantam Delawares are, but they are pretty cute

Dont you just love the fusion? Lol. I know his comb is a train wreck

but eh, its what I got. Hes not the sweetest, yet, but I'm working on him, slowly but surely.

Thank you for helping count them, I am still learning! I love the pics everyone. The bantam Del is cute. How big is he, I can't tell from the picture. Does he strut around and act tough? I laugh when I see the bantams do that.

I have a silkie who thought he could get frisky with a RIR today. She just dragged him around the coop on her back til he gave up!!!

Not very big, he's about the size of my rosecomb bantam, and no he doesnt strut and stuff, hes a huge baby, runs to the pen door and lets me pick him up and hold him and just sits in my lap lol

Hope to find him a few Girlfriends soon

[Germaine_11.20]

Rainstorm he sound precious. I love it when they love me! I hope you find some girls for him soon.

Oh Del girl aren't you just the proud mama! Love the pic with Oreo and his cougars. To me it looks like he is saying "are you doing anything tonight?" And she is replying "ahh washing my feathers!"

You know, I think your right

Those two that are pictured with him are pretty comical birds. The one closest to him is absolutely beautiful. She has the prettiest red washed lacing on her, and I wish I had a different rooster to breed her with to make it come out in her chicks. I have 3 chicks from her and heffner and they are beautiful, but lack the coloring she has. Oreo has one other hen in there, but shes shy and kinda flighty, and she rests on his other side.
