I'm happy with bigger bantams because they have to free range with all the neighbourhood cats around, so I need them to be too big for a cat to take on. It's not that smaller birds are out of the question because they are agile but silkie size is fine. I just don't want the large fowl birds that destroy the garden completely!
Oh, make no mistake, your bantams will destroy the garden as well.
No chickens fly away, some might roam further than others but they all return come nightfall.
I wonder if they are even available here or if they have another name (la corne de jambe
) - do you have them in Sweden?

Hej Henrick (no not French - Aussie who lived in Denmark for a year, has a best Swedish friend that used to live out here but lives in France (on and off with Australia for the last 20 years or so!!)). It is funny you say that as I was searching like a crazy lady to try to find your Blue Isbars here but they don't exist - am seriously considering trying to get some sent in the next year or 2 when I get my coops / runs better set up for having seperate breeds. I was actually even wondering if they have leghorns here let alone the bantams - you never see white eggs so maybe they aren't popular!
Hello!
Are you in a Facebook chicken group? You should try it, you'd be amazed at the variety of chickens you can find in those.
