Silver Sebright bantam chickens

We now have a flock of about 24 bantams, maybe 7 of which are these Silver Sebrights. We have one Golden Sebright. I fell in love with these beautiful birds a few years ago when I saw a 10-year-old girl's flock at the Mendocino County Fair. They lay very small eggs, are a bit skittish, but oh those white feathers outlined in black! We get all our chickens from Murray McMurray Hatchery; they come via the U.S. post office overnight.

Here's a good blog with a lot of practical hands-on tips for raising chickens in urban or suburban areas: http://urban-agrarian.blogspot.com/

Yay,its good to see others keeping bantam breeds.I am amazed with all the new chicken keepers out there these days keeping big standard breeds especially in the urban settings.
I came across your blog about a month ago and am really loving the variety of your posts.Thank-you so much.

Those are beautiful! The contrast of color is impressive. I've always admired how living creatures with white feathers or fur manage to stay so bright and clean.
