List of Chicken Breeds - Bantams

Bantams

Most large chicken breeds have a bantam counterpart, sometimes referred to as a miniature. Miniatures are usually one-fifth to one-quarter the size of the standard breed, but they are expected to exhibit all of the standard breed's characteristics. A true bantam has no large counterpart, and is naturally small. The true bantams include:

  • Belgian Bearded d'Anvers
  • Belgian Bearded d'Uccle
  • Belgian d'Everberg
  • Booted Bantam
  • Dutch Bantam
  • Japanese Bantam
  • Nankin
  • Pekin
  • Rosecomb
  • Sebright
  • Serama
  • Silkie
