Hello from Malta

The Yakido originates from the small village of Yakido, Japan from around 1850.

The Yakido is a sturdy, self assured breed that copes well with confinement as well as suited to free ranging. It is quite a hardy breed and will tolerate colder climates. As with other Japanese fighting breeds, males can and will fight given half a chance, so best to only keep one male, unless you intend to breed them. The hens lay cream/white eggs, but rarely and if the hen does go broody eggs can get broken due to their muscular build. Males have been known to attack humans, but this is possibly down to poor handling; a tame bird shouldn't.

Cocks weigh in the region of 6 pounds and hens 5 pounds. Large birds considering they are classed as bantams.
