 | | To complicate matters, bantams aren't sexed--that is, there will be cockerels (males) and pullets (females) all mixed up in there, so there is an even chance of getting a male when you buy. |
 | | I have also had a bantam Cochin (both Brahma and Cochin chickens have feathers on their legs and feet) and a bantam Polish (Polish have clean legs, but poofy topknots), and they were active, lively, and cleared my yard of grasshoppers. |
 | | Other than picking your bantams up at the local feed store, you can also go to the county or state fair during poultry judging, and maybe contact breeders who are showing birds. |
