Bantam thread(including polish and silkies)

[Rock17]

In that case, definitely i+ (no Dominant White)

I don't know about what genes affect eye color.



Probably:
s+ (gold)
Mh (Mahogany, makes a richer red shade than just having gold)
E^WH (Wheaten)
Co or Db or both (Columbian or Dark Brown, both restricters of black)
i+ (no Dominant White, also no dun/khaki)

These may be obvious, but she would also be:
b+ (not barred)
Choc+ (not chocolate)
Lav+ (not showing lavender, can't be positive whether she carries it or not)
Mo+ (not showing mottling, can't be positive whether she carries it or not)
C+ (not showing Dominant White, can't be positive whether she carries it or not)
And so on for various other genes.

Thankyou that is really helpful

I know other people have done this but none of them are active.
Please post pictures of your bantams. I have currently got a bantam flock of four that will soon increase to 6(7 but one is going to be a legbar). Note that this thread also includes diminutive large fowl like large polish and Chinese silkies. Also dwarf chickens like @MysteryChicken’s malay.

My 11-9 week old silkies! They will be shown in the future

Well hello! It seems I'm late to the party.
Here's Patti the blue bantam Polish eating in front of Randy (Randal) the Serama. In the bottom left corner you can see Rebbecias' head lol.

Here's another picture of Patti.

This is Angel, she's Ms. Pleezys' baby, and a sweet heart. This is her right before bed time which is after everyone else roosts, she stays out late lol.

I have more but that's all the recent pictures I have of them.

I have been called. I'm assuming to share about my chicks. Well I have two silkies husband and wife. They had eggs but don't want to sit on them. So disappointed me bought an incubator. And now have one that is due to hatch any day now!

We usually name them on day one so if they turn out to be a boy we try to alter it. For example, Rosy turned into Brosy. It's more fun that way.
