Latest Reviews For Booted Bantam (5 of 17)
Booted Bantam Lover - Anne,
I absolutely love these hens. They are friendly and get on very well with my ancient cat, Bubbles. The truth is, there is a major drawback to having bantams in the garden: they are much more attractive to predatory neighbourhood cats. I have to be constantly vigilant when the girls are having a run around. Also, mine have proven not very hardy. Two have just passed away from the same complaint: internal laying. They were just over 3 years old. I will undoubtedly continue to keep these lovely birds, drawbacks notwithstanding. I recommend become a member of the Booted Bantam Society.

I have 2 Belgian Bearded Bantams who free range in a small but densely planted garden with lots of fruit trees. I protect precious plants & vegies from the chooks. One is 11 years old & the other 9, so in my experience they are pretty hardy. I have had about a dozen of this breed over the years & these two have lived the longest, though I have previously had a Belgian Bantam who lived for 7 years. The 9 year old has laid one clutch of eggs a year for the past 2 years in the Australian summer (her last clutch was just before Christmas), but prior to that she would lay an egg every 30 hours or so with pauses of a few weeks between each clutch. The 11 year old laid her last clutch about a year & a half ago. The 9 year old is fit, plump & healthy; the 11 year old is doing poorly now, but still has a good appetite. Both are very friendly & this breed makes excellent pets for children.
very good chicken. pecked out my eyes and now i cant see, but this chicken is cool lowkey. - Stiffening,
amazing chicken. only gets into 5 fights a day
Great little bird - Georgina,
Gorgeous birds, low maintenance, accepting of others into the flock and no damage to garden.
- Bev,
We have mother and daughter Mille Fleurs, they are the friendliest little girls, when we first got them, mum Fleur was 18mths old and daughter Milly was 5 mths old. Our cat decided to check them out mum wrapped her wing around Milly it was so cute to see her protecting her daughter. They are all the best of friends now. We would love to get another one, Milly has been broodie once, I don’t know how we would go borrowing a rooster as our neighbours are not very friendly, they tend to knock everything we do. If anyone in the Bundaberg or surrounding area has a young hen for sale we would love to hear from you. I love my hens I have a debilitating disease so I am unable to do much but I love tending my girls, they keep me going.
