shelley8179 Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 I am looking into hens that lay different coloured eggs. I already have a and 2 layers and would like to add some more hens to my girls. My girls are bantams and would like them to be friendly, any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom123 Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Maran bantams lay and are pretty good layers too. Don't go for Welsummer Bantams as they don't tend to lay dark eggs like their large counterpart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midori Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 The lady I went to visit on Saturday had some Orpington Bantams, which were stunning, and I am assuming they are friendly and lay brown eggs like their LF counterparts. I don't know much about Bantams though, so maybe I'm not being that helpful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jools Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 I'd suggest Marans bantams too, mine are much friendlier than my stroppy Welsummer was!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
