THE SERAMA CHICKEN

THE SERAMA CHICKEN

Stanford is a very nice presentation  of what a serama rooster should look like.  He is also very friendly and loves to hang out by the pond and watch the fish swim

COCKS                             HENS 

Micro - under 9 ounces       Micro - under 8 ounces
A - 9.1 to 13 ounces             A - 8.1 to 12 ounces
B - 13.1 to 16 ounces            B - 12.1 to 15 ounces
C - 16.1 to 19 ounces            C - 15.1 to 17 ounces
D - over 19.1 ounces             D - over 17.1 ounces
MICROS AND CLASS A;  These sizes make wonderful pets but do not have the musculature to give them the full-bodied type required per standard.  They are rarely able to produce and have shorter life expectancy then the larger sizes.
CLASS B AND CLASS C:  These sizes are the most practical for those interested in breeding.  They can and do reproduce B class and smaller offspring.  They are still smaller than most other bantams and make great pets also.


The SCNA no longer uses A, B, or C classifications for showing, 
rather birds must fall into an acceptable weight range.
