Can a bantam breed with a larger female chicken?
Yes, they can preform the actual act of breeding and they can successfully fertilize the egg. I have several bantam roosters and they breed our full sized chickens whenever they can, though the larger hens are harder to catch. LOL Mine even work in pairs on occasion to help catch and hold the larger hens. Oddly enough if the hen submits easily some of my little bantam roosters will finish and then just stand there on top of them like they have nothing better to do, they won't even give the hen a little thank you dance. geez We have beautiful, medium sized silkie cross rooster and he has some very interesting looking full sized offspring that look like a cochin cross with the dark silkie comb and bouffant hairdo's. Some of his offspring look exactly like their mothers only much smaller versions, even smaller then Dad. We aren't trying to cross freaky looking chickens, we just happen to like many different kinds of chickens and because they are all free range they roam and breed freely. We are looking forward to the next hatching of chicks to see what our other bantam roosters (Cochin, Silkie, Sultan and Millie Fleur) produce.

Originally known as the Shanghai (a name also used for the Brahma breed of chicken). The Cochin was the breed that launched interest in poultry shows because of the feathering down to the toes. Pekins are recognized as a separate bantam breed in some countries, rather than as bantam Cochins.
Can a bantam rooster fertilize another breed of hen?
Yes, it can be done but the bantam rooster may have trouble mounting the standard hen. Bantam roosters are gregarious and often present themselves as the "boss" bird. Many standard hens will assume the mating position close to the ground thus enabling the bantam rooster to mount the saddle area on the back of the hen. From this position the rooster must be large enough to touch cloaca to cloaca in order to deliver the sperm packet.
