The Spitzes can hold their own & if in trouble, they're faster than any other chicken we have. All of our chickens have been hatched here & raised with their hatchmates of assorted breeds. So my bantam orp grew up with full-sized orps & CCLs. She never seemed to realize that she's smaller. In fact she has more "attitude" plus the agility to steal the best treats before the big girls can react. She's in the middle of it all! Likewise, we have one tiny Sebright. We never intended to keep her, but her strong spirit, outstanding appearance, and silly personality added too much fun to our flock. We had to train her to come on command, so now we know we can get her back into the coop when needed. (I don't believe in chasing chickens.) Because the Spitzes are fast, I know I'll need to work with them like my Sebright. However, they are much calmer & more people friendly than how my Sebright started out.Do the Spitz do well in mixed flocks, or get picked on like Polish & Silkies? I love their crests, some look like turbans, and some are wild like some polish. I always think of them as the "Dalmatian" chickens because of the spots.
I kinda want to do a 100 chick study.
