Will bantams breed standards?

[newham0614]

I have a silkie roo and a showgirl roo. I have some bantam hens and mostly standard hens. I'm hoping they will breed the big chickens as well. Is it possible. I think i would get some cute chickens.

A banty roo will breed anything he can catch, regardless of size, or try anyway. JMHO

Yes, your banty roo should breed the showgirls, if they let him. They might have trouble with the larger breeds because of the size difference.

My cousin has a banty roo that i think likes ducks more than hens. it's funny to watch.

In a heartbeat.

Successfully? Maybe not. But it's a hoot to watch!
