Chicken Breeds: True Bantams

While miniature versions of many chicken breeds exist, this page contains breeds that are considered true bantams. There is no larger version of these breeds, only the bantam.

This list is a work in progress and very much incomplete, but we are adding new breeds every week!

Note: Breeders come up with new colors every year, and many are not recognized by the APA. The colors listed for each breed are often just a few of the many colors available!
