lol, ut oh look what we started, hehe. they are the worlds smallest and friendliest chickens. full grown they are suppost to be not much bigger than a cockatiel. most people raise them in the house cause so small. the eggs i hatched from where not much smaller than a silkie bantam egg. our new eggs should be here tomarrow or friday i'll take pics so u can see the size. i'd say they could be eaten, pickled what have ya.

here is a pic of one of my bantam frizzled cochins they are a hoot also. his name is andy and about 5 weeks old.
