I'm getting 3 bantam pullets on monday, :thumbright: 2 wyndotes and a frizzel x 10 weeks old, so i am looking forward to some fresh eggs next year.

Hello,

I think its great. I have Silver Duckwings myself and am wanting to get some Cochins. I've had wyandottes but not Frizzels. I had a Polish though, who I named after TV star Phyllis Diller.

Have you not had Bantams before? I've had several batches and not only are they good little layers, nothing beats them for setting, I've hatched ducks and geese with Bantams and had confused hens looking at "their" babies swimming :? ?

So I'm definitely a fan, and I like them free range too when I can, they keep the borders of the garden clear but don't try to get in the gate if your garden is fence and I've never had one fly over the garden fence either :mrgreen:

I'm sure you'll find you like them, they're easy to care for.

:cheers: Lois
