Tell me about your bantam polish?

[ra]

What are they like? Fly alot? noisy? I hear they don't go broody too often? Any info out there? Thanks!

I've only had 2 bantam Buff Laced hens. One was fairly flighty, but she did a good job going broody and raising chicks. The other one is super sweet and will follow me around the yard and let me pick her up.

Mine are nice to handle and they are talkers...but I don't mind the noise, so I probably don't notice it as much as most people would?! I have never had one go broody but I do know that others have had. I think if I left the eggs in their boxes they might, but I always collect daily.

I have pictures on my website and I am a member of the Polish Breeders Club. I do suggest that if you are interested in Polish that you become a member. I think the membership is $10 for a yr. They have a forum and a ton of info. www.polishbreedersclub.com

Best of Luck!

Wow thanks for the info, I'm going to go check out the site you posted! When you say they talk a lot do you mean like the brrr brr like when you go out and they are like talkin to you or do you mean the loud squaking type?I love it when I go outside and my hens talk to me!If that makes any sense?
