Verified Reviews for Dutch Bantam
Old Dutch Bantam Cockerel - Celia, Isle of Wight,
I have a trio of Old Dutch Bantams and one young cockerel who we hatched in an incubator. He loves human company, comes running to see us and jumps up on an arm and pecks on the conservatory door to be let in. Ideally he would like his own hens and I am currently looking to buy two to keep him company.

- An Omleteer,
I have kept four silver partridge Dutch Bantams for almost a year. I have one cockerel and three hens. They are very small, meaning that they haven’t dug up my garden and at the same time, I find that they consume far less food. All three hens went broody in the summer. I let one of them hatch out some chicks, which was amazing and when they grew up I found that they were sold (even the boys) very easily. Even though the eggs are small, I think that they taste so much better than other chicken eggs and I find that the egg yolks seem to be bigger when compared to the white than that of other chicken eggs. Being small, the male doesnt make too much noise, however they are quite keen on flying, so I would recommend keeping them in a covered run in order to keep them where they are meant to be! They don’t need much space, although they certainly like it. From three hens I got about 9 eggs a week in the spring and summer - not as good as other breeds but still plenty. An all round brilliant breed of chicken, with distinct personalities and beautiful characteristics!

Gorgeously handsome friendly birds - Elspeth,
I purchased some Serama eggs from eBay and only one of them hatched, later I discovered that it wasn't a Serama at all but a Dutch Bantam cockerel. Surprisingly I wasn't at all disappointed as the cockerel is a stunner, he lives with serama and modern game hens and is the friendliest nicest rooster I've ever had the pleasure to own. It's a breed I knew nothing of but will now be pursuing!
