Welcome
Welcome to Booted Bantams In Wales. Here you will find all you need to know about these delightful little bantams.

The Booted Bantam is looked after by the Rare Poultry Society. It is standardised in 11 colours; Black, White, Blue, Lavender, Cuckoo, Black Mottled, Buff Mottled, Gold Millefleur, Lemon Millefleur, Silver Millefleur and Porcelain. Detailed descriptions of these can be found under the Standards page.
To help support the breed it is worth joining the RPS. By joining you are entitled to several newsletters a year, a breeder's directory and eligibility to win rosettes and trophies at shows. I have recently taken over as Breed Registrar for the Booted Bantam. As breed registrar l'd like to build up a better picture of how many birds there are in the UK and to compile a breeders/keepers list of all known Booted Bantams in the UK. I would be very grateful if you could spare the time to tell me the following information about your birds; colour variety, number of males/females, county and if possible where they came from. An email address would also be beneficial as I intend on publishing a newsletter in the near future. You can contact me through email- ahales2010@live.com or through the "Contact Me" tab in the right hand corner.
I presently keep Booted Bantams in Black, Cuckoo, Gold Millefleur & White. In the UK, the Cuckoo may now be one of the rarest colours with only myself known to be breeding them in 2010. Limited stock of all colours will be available from October.
They are commonly referred to as Sabelpoots, this is the Dutch name for them and although recognised in the UK please watch the spelling! They are Sabelpoot due to their vulture hocks or Sabels and not Sable as in the fur.
