Scots Dumpy
Large Fowl (2.7Kg-3.2Kg) Bantam (675g-800g)
This breed has been bred in Scotland for more than 100 years. The birds have also been called Bakies, Crawlers and Creepies because of its short legs. The gene that produces their short legs is the same one that produces the short legged Dexter Cattle. I don't know how it crossed species though! Similar birds have been known to exist as long ago as the tenth century. They enjoy free ranging and are good layers and mothers. Both large and bantams available.
Main Colours:
No fixed colour but most widely seen are Black, Cuckoo, White, Brown, Gold and Silver.
