Silkies need extra care in cold and wet weather as their unique feathers cannot repel water, which makes them more prone to getting soaked and chilled. They are called booted because they have feathers on their legs, which makes it look like they are wearing boots. Although Booted Bantams look similar to the Belgian d’Uccle they do not have a beard and muffs. Booted Bantams are also slightly bigger. Both the hens and the roosters weigh under two pounds. Their overall size is not the only small thing about them. They have small wattles and combs too. While bantam eggs tend to be smaller, they are much cuter and can be used in a variety of ways.
