Gold Laced Sebright chickens are true bantams. They don’t have a larger counterpart. Mature hens will weigh around 20 ounces and roosters will weigh around 22 ounces. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
See my beautiful Sebrights in the video below. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
They are valued for their ornamental appearance which features gold feathers with black lacing. They also have distinctive rose combs that are mulberry or a deep red.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Many people raise Golden Sebright bantams for exhibition (4H, FFA, etc.). Even though they aren’t known for their egg-laying capacity, hens in their prime years will lay around 60 – 80 very small white eggs. People do not raise them for meat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They are friendly, curious, and easy to raise. Being smaller than standard-sized chickens, they eat less. They take up less space as well; though it’s important to have enough space for them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
They do best in warmer climates and do not like the cold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
