Don't know anything about them. Confused Are they bantams? Or smallish LF?? If so, I'll add them to my wish list - they're lovely! Very Happy

Thank you for the compliment on behalf of my little beauties.

I have to say they are lovely hens, they lay beautiful white eggs and have only missed one or two days of laying since they started.
They have horrible voices though, the crow like corncrakes and that's the hens, dread to think what the cocks are like!

Thanks George for helping me out with the pic.

These ladies are not bantams they're a rare Belgium breed, they're a little smaller than my hybrids so I suppose they are what you would call a light fowl. The only problem I have with them is that they can fly over my garden fences which are roughly 8ft high, luckily Ive got very good neighbours.
