These beautiful bantams showcase a stunning blend of silver and black feathers, creating a delicate, eye-catching pattern that adds elegance and charm to your poultry collection. Though small in size, their presence is bold, making them a favorite among poultry enthusiasts of all levels, from seasoned keepers to those just beginning their poultry-raising journey.

One of the standout traits of Silver Penciled Cochin Bantams is their calm and gentle nature. Their sweet temperament makes them ideal companions for families, especially those with young children, as they are easy to handle and enjoy interaction. Their fluffy appearance only adds to their appeal, making them perfect for both show purposes and as delightful pets in any backyard setting.

Despite their ornamental beauty, these bantams are also practical and productive. Hens lay around 150 to 200 small brown eggs each year, providing a steady supply for small-scale egg production. In addition to their laying abilities, these hens are known for their strong maternal instincts, often going broody and proving to be excellent mothers to their chicks. For those interested in natural hatching, Silver Penciled Cochin Bantams are an excellent choice.

Roosters typically weigh around 30 ounces, with hens weighing about 26 ounces, making them a manageable and easy-to-care-for breed in small spaces. These bantams, originally hailing from Asia, are part of the esteemed Feather Legged Bantam Class, and while this particular color variety may not be APA-recognized, it doesn’t detract from their overall beauty or charm.
