Nankins are traditional small bantams with warm buff colouring. Choose them as a bantam breed in their own right rather than as a smaller version of a large buff chicken.

Match the birds to your purpose: a laying flock, an ornamental group or a planned breeding setup. Talk to us about the particular birds if temperament or handling is important to you.

Suitability & care

Use small-bird fittings and a secure run. Introduce similar-sized companions carefully and check the available sex options when choosing a breeding pair.

Use small-bird fittings and introduce companions with similar space and feeding needs. Have shelter, feed and fresh water ready before the birds arrive. Our chicken house and run guide helps you prepare the setup.
