Other than being diminutive, bantams need the same care as standard breeds of chickens.

Food, water and shelter will meet their basic needs. Good sanitation of living areas will reduce chances of disease. Protection from predators is essential as chickens are easy prey to dogs, cats and other animals.

ive never had any problem with this but assuming you are having a problem with it i would recomend doing something like having some nesting boxes that only the bantams can get into

also make sure your bantams are getting enough to eat that might cause them not to lay as well

If the chicks have been on chick starter crumbs then a chick grower can be introduced slowly. Chick grower is normally just a bit bigger than the starter crumbs. Just like any babies, a slow introduction will reduce the refusal rate of the larger size feed.

Mix the different sized feeds at about 1/4 new to what they are used to eating now. Make the change gradual over about one week until they are on 100% grower. Start the change to full size feed at about 3 months old.

Would you say the chicken hatched or the egg hatched?

i think you are most likely to say the egg hatched first ,cause with out an egg there wouldn't be a chick. well, actually, an egg can't hatch on its own if there isn't something warm sitting on it, so i think that the chicken came first, and was "magically" (or something) created. why do you want to know were you hatched??????


Was it the chicken or the egg?

It all depends on the question. If you mean, which comes first, then, according to all scientific knowledge on evolution, the egg came first. There had to be a progenitor species that laid an egg. And that egg incurred a small mutation that resulted in a new species equivalent to the chicken. Then, the new chicken species hatched from the egg.
