a bit of an OE tail
That is a something that I will continue to try to improve also. Both LF and bantam silver type is not quite the same as say black bantams and LF, which I think is closer to the standard.
The bantam silvers that I bought about 20 years ago weren\'t as nice as what we have today. Even the few that I saw in a show way back, in Mason City, Iowa, looked very Old English.
LF and bantam silvers have most varieties beat when it comes to the proper blue eggs color, but are also the least docile.
It is interesting that often the same variety in bantam and LF will have many of the same faults and attributes.
