After reading this ENTIRE thread I want more! She is my sweetest, calmest, smartest chicken! If I can find a good del roo I would love to get some babies from her! Now, where to find a good roo...
If you can wait a few months, JamesA might have some from the hatch he just got from Speckledhen- her birds are beautiful, also Yardfullorocks has babies. Don't know if either plan to keep all, but probably not all the roos, eh?
How awesome for you, Adam! This is a great bantam breed to start on, considering how unusual they are. She has nice hackle color--a bit hard to see with the lighting in the pic. Congratulations!

I dunno, she looks like a delaware, but.... I'm looking at her wing feathers here. Is that brown in them? Near the tips where the patterning is?
And herechickchick, beautiful bantie Del there. I didnt know they came in Bantams.
He is wayyyy huge. I just love him and he's a good roo, not aggressive or shy. His comb is a disaster but I'll take his type and temperament 8 days a week.
