    Tiny chicken breed(s)?

    I'm in love with the tiny chickens - the ones I've seen are usually black and white. But I don't know what breed they are and I would love to know. Also, I'm assuming there's multiple breeds like this. What are these chickens called?

    Best chicken breed for tick control?

    White Silkie Rooster. Asian Breed. NOT a bantam breed. They are officially their own full breed, they are just small (and unique in every other way! Even toe count!)
