What do you do with little Bantam eggs

[DestinyRosie]

I have a few little bantams and they haven't laid any eggs yet but I've seen that they will be tiny, do you treat them the same as other bigger eggs? And I'm new to this site and to raising chickens so if this isn't supposed to be here I'm sorry!

They are just smaller eggs, they get the same treatment as larger eggs...

Welcome to the BYC flock! We are glad you joined us!

You can treat Bantam eggs like any other egg, just be sure to adjust quantity for cooking/baking recipes.

I believe for baking/cooking purposes 1 regular chicken egg = 3 bantam eggs.

Welcome to BYC. Glad you decided to join our flock. You use and eat the bantam eggs just like you would standard sized eggs. As drumstick diva indicated, it will just take 3 times as many of them for each recipe. If you haven't done so already, definitely check out our Learning Center at https://www.backyardchickens.com/atype/1/Learning_Center. There is loads of useful information there. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have. We are here to help in any way we can. Good luck with your bantams.
