Rhode Island Red Bantam Chicks

Purely Poultry is excited to introduce Rhode Island Red Bantam Chickens, a compact version of the iconic Rhode Island Red breed that brings both beauty and utility to your backyard. Known for their striking dark red plumage, these bantams are just as eye-catching as their standard-sized counterparts, but in a smaller, more manageable package. Whether you’re looking to enhance your flock with a reliable egg layer or add a show-stopping bird to your collection, Rhode Island Red Bantams are a fantastic choice.

Though bantam in size, these chickens pack a lot of personality and charm. Roosters weigh in at around 34 ounces, while hens average about 30 ounces, making them easy to handle and ideal for smaller spaces. Their calm, docile temperament makes them a great option for beginner poultry keepers or families, while their adaptability means they thrive in a variety of environments, from confined coops to free-range setups. Rhode Island Red Bantams are excellent foragers, often finding much of their own food, which makes them a low-maintenance, eco-friendly addition to any flock.

One of the most impressive traits of Rhode Island Red Bantams is their egg-laying prowess. These hens are consistent producers of small brown eggs, providing you with a reliable source of fresh eggs year-round. In addition to their productivity, they are hardy birds, able to withstand a range of climates—from hot summers to cold winters—making them a versatile option for poultry keepers in any region.

With a history of excellence, Rhode Island Red Bantams have been officially recognized by the American Poultry Association since 1940. This breed’s long-standing popularity is a testament to its versatility, practicality, and enduring appeal. Whether you’re looking for a dependable egg layer, a friendly companion, or a bird to showcase in poultry exhibitions, these bantams are sure to meet your needs.
