What breed of Bantum chicken is this?

[Ziva Rainey]

I bought a few bantums at local feed store when they were few days old, but breeds were unknown. Any Idea what breed these girls are? Please and thank you. Note the Black and gray girl and the full light gray girls are booted, also the solid black thin girl has light black legs and light green earlobes. Please and thank you.

Hi, welcome to BYC!

You got great answers... noting BOTH stated 1 and 4 are cockerels.

1 looks more like a birchen Cochin cockerel to me
2 agree it's probably a black Dutch bantam pullet. Could be a Minorca or white faced black Spanish bantam pullet, too.
3 maybe self blue instead of porcelain d'uccles. Pullet.
4 agree with the others

Yeah. Birchen
My screen shows the spots of a porcelain on the d'Uccles though.

or white faced black Spanish bantam pullet,

No, I raise those in large fowl... I think the comb is too small. And mine get their white faces fairly early.

BUT... learning every day. So maybe.

No, I will take your word for it. It was just a thought based on her body conformation, but she's probably a hatchery quality Dutch.

I've always wanted to breed white faced black Spanish, especially now that they've become so rare. Do you know a good source for them?

Good, just throwing out the possibility. I wish I had your eyesight! I can't see the spots at all.
