Pekins are a “True Bantam” meaning they have no Large fowl counterpart.
These marvellous, compact bantams are full of personality. As they have feathered feet they don’t scratch and forage as much so do less damage to the garden. However as with all feathered feet breeds they will require checking regularly and best kept on well draining ground.
The Silver?Laced Pekin is a new variety to the UK.
