    “Ultra Rare” bantam box mystery!

    Single comb, slate legs, teal/purple earlobes, a striking variety of feather colors. She started chipmunk, and I assumed I’d be able to figure out what she is later…but she’s 10 weeks and I can’t seem to find a google match?? Any ideas?

    Mystery Banty?

    I just got four new Bantams from the local Costal (I believe they supply from Meyers hatchery).

What’s your guy’s opinion on breed...

    Our new cockerel Lenny - I love him to bits!!!

    Hi all, Thought I’d make a wee post to show off the cockerel I picked up recently - I’m sure he’s a bit of a mutt but I know he’s a bantam of some sort (he’s much smaller than all the hens).
