Description | Bantam Wyandottes are docile and calm natured birds making them ideal for an domestic environment. The hens are excellent broodies and make good mothers. Their attractive "curvy" shape, generally good disposition and many attractive colour patterns make them a good choice for fanciers as well as farmers. If random colour is ordered where possible we will try to send as much variety as possible but this is not guaranteed . |
