Are they Bantams
« on: August 12, 2014, 15:51 »
About 3 weeks ago my son in law got 2 black hens given which we put in with 3 ginger hybrids and a light sussex cock.Within days they were laying small very light brown eggs anywhere they could but now they are using the communal  nestbox.At first i thought they were pullets but after doing some research I think they are Black Austrolorps and probably bantams ,they are nowhere near the size of buff orpingtons.Does anyone have any of these,sorry i cant do photos this is my work desktop i would get wrong.I will say they lay virtually every day only small egg but nearly all yoke....lovely!

without seeing them we cant say what breed they are sorry.
Staffies are softer than you think.
