Banty Chickens
« on: December 11, 2015, 04:35:25 PM »
I have an abundance of Banty Chickens and would be willing to part with some chicks. They've been hatching out like crazy the last couple weeks.

let me know if you'd like to take some babies. I have about 15 which will be ready for a new home in a couple weeks.

Do you know what breed?

I just need to thin the flock. I have some adults and juveniles I can part with. Two hatches of babies in the last couple weeks probably need a bit longer to get bigger. They've self hatched at least 6-7 batches this year.

Some are white, mixed. A couple black roosters. Mixed youngsters. I have a big white silky I'd like to part with if anyone is interested. He's pretty cool and not aggressive towards the other birds. Looks like big bird.

I'll throw in a laying hen or two with any multiple chick pick up..  :chuckle:

These hens pump out the eggs. they are little but, far more than any chickens I've had. They also will hatch out ever batch if you let them sit. They reproduce like rabbits.
