Well good day eh! :farmer:

Say maybe you can answer this question for me...what's the difference between New Hamp bantams and Rhode Island Red bantams? I think they'd be real close.

Hi Kyle, great to see that you signed up on PTO! I am sure that you will learn a few things here and enjoy reading about some adventures and miss-adventures. Remember me when you are looking for some excellent Wyandotte bantams. Pete.

You were the 1st person on the list Pete!

@baronrenfrew I'm not experienced enough to answer that in great detail but I can tell you the main difference is new hamps are faster feathering, from my understanding the original new hamp breeders bred them from RIR by selecting for vigour and fast feathering.

Thank you for posting, nothing like seeing the two breeds side by side to see the difference.
