Sebrights are
one of the most stunning breeds of chickens around. Here we offer the beautiful Silver Sebrights. Feathers have a snowy white base, with each one laced in shiny black, like dragon scales. Even more interesting is
the fact that both males and female Senrights have the same plumage--males are
"henny feathered"--meaning they do not have the pointy hackle and
saddle feathers that distinguish roosters of other breeds.
There
is no standard version of the Sebright; they are a true
Bantam. Roosters average 26 ounces while the hens
average 22 ounces. Both have a chesty, jaunty stance with the wings
pointed downward: their incredible white and black lacing makes them look surreal, like miniature a pen-and-ink drawing of a bird!
Sebrights
lay tiny little tinted eggs, don't lay well and rarely set. They are
kept chiefly for pleasure and exhibition. They are friendly little
birds when raised with affection, although they are not particularly
docile. They can be little show-offs! (We think they know how beautiful
they are.)
Sebright chicks have a reputation for being difficult
to rear, although we have not found that to be true with our lines. The
eggs we're offering are truly lovely. They will not disappoint you.
