japanese bantam

(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens? - Hi, we are Rudolf and Jowanita De Villiers from South Africa. We have been raising and attempt to breed show quality Rhode Island Red and Japanese Bantam chickens. We have been busy for less than a year now, also one of the reasons...

I got my boy by random selection by a man who was downsizing his flock and he gave me this guy as a chick. He grew up very beautifully and I really loves his coloring and his incredibly sweet personality. I couldn’t find his coloring around the OEGB charts(assuming he is a cross) but an online...

This chick was naturally bred by our Cochin Bantam rooster and Japanese Bantam hen. We've had 2 other chickens bred from these two who both turned out to be hens. Does the lump on this chicks chest signify that its a rooster or some sort of issue like an air bubble?

I ordered chicks a couple days ago, they arrived a few hours ago. I stuck them all under my Cochin bantam (Betty) who has been sitting for a while and she took them all immediately. Somehow she has fit 18 chicks under her! 6 bantam Cochin, 6 Japanese bantam, and 6 Cornish x. I tend to have luck...

Hi, so this is cuddles. I had him sexed on here when he was 4 weeks and 5 weeks, everyone said he looked like a pullet but now that he's at 6 weeks, his comb is bigger and redder than the other jap bantam chick i bought. im pretty sure hes a cockerel. i need asap replies because i'll need to...

Hi! If I have a Japanese Bantam Rooster that I breed with an Old English hen, will I get many eggs from the resulting hens that I hatch? Since OEB are prolific layers and JB only lay around 75 eggs per year, I wasn’t sure if the resulting daughters of this match would take after one parent or...

I’m deeply interested in the idea of obtaining Japanese bantam breeds. When comparing ko shamo or yamato gunkei in America vs. Japan: the difference is huge. Japanese breeders have versions of these birds that are more stout (instead of the odd length I’ve seen here) and have more wrinkles in...

Hello! We have some really cute cockerals. We have the following: Pic: 1 Black Tailed White Japanese Cockeral Pic: 2. Red silkie cockeral Pic: 3. And 4 Barnyard mix cockeral Mom full bred Asian dad? I think that his dad is a Ameraucana/ Wyandotte. $10 each except for the Japanese bantam $12...

I was wondering if anyone has tried to create a rose comb Japanese bantam. I was thinking about trying to cross a Japanese with a Rosecomb bantam. Would it be possible to cross the two breeds and get a rose or other small comb? Then would I be able to breed out the Rosecomb body attributes in...

Her name is Betty, and she's such a sweetheart. Wondering if she is a Mr. Betty? Thank you for your help!

I am hoping to find something that could help me tell the gender of my black japanese bantam chick. I'm new to the breed and I want to be able to tell what the gender is and I could only think of maybe someone knowing on here. Please and thank you 🙏

She was a silver little ball among a cluster of yellow chicks : ^) Raising her has always been special. Even when I thought it’d be too much work to enjoy, it was always fun She’s such a unique little character. I can never get upset with her, cause I understand that little temper she’s had...

Hello I have yellow bantam rooster that I was wondering if there was a color variety for. I have seen pictures of roosters just like it before but they don't have a breed name with them so figured he's a mutt. Mother is a ginger red OEGB and father is a silver duckwing OEGB. Legs are yellow...

Several Japanese pullets and cockerels $10 per pair most are black mottled, 1 black cochin cockerel $5 and a trio of Phoenix bantams $15. Located at leitchfield ky I could possibly ship. Message me for pictures if interested

I’m getting ready to downsize my Ohiki and American longtail flock. I plan on traveling to Kentucky in April to meet up with some other Ohiki Breeders, and we have tossed around the idea of collectively bringing what birds we each have available and then letting folks know the date and time they...

My little jap bantams are 8 weeks old. The black one has a slightly larger comb than the other two I have (not pictured) but it's not bright red and no waddle development. Is this a female or a late developing male? Photo of its "brother" hatched hours apart, same breed and quite obviously a...

ISO Japanese Bantams or their hatching eggs. I am willing to travel a reasonable distance to collect. I’m looking for coloring/markings similar to the attached picture. I live in Southeast Missouri.

Black Tailed White Japanese bantam born September 1st. Nearly fully feathered. Father is my avatar "Tiny." Tiny is my favorite roo. He is not people aggressive and has tons of character. Looking for a good home for his little cockerel, where he will be safe from the table. Small rehoming fee to...

We had gotten five baby chicks from the local feed store and now that they’re two months old, we’ve found that two of them are roosters and were misgendered. One is a Japanese Bantam and the other is a D’uccle Bantam. They’ve been together since week one and we would prefer it if they were...
