I won't lie. I want the demon phoenix poultry. Any chicken breeders here please, contact me. I will fund this project.

Oh those guys are so cool!! I used to have a couple of bantam silkies and I loved them, but their eggs are tiny. They loved to sit on our laps though. They were so friendly. Thank you for this. I wonder if I can even find someone who breeds these around here. I guess that's always the option of ordering fertile eggs online.

They aren’t particularly winter hardy so you may not find them as easily from local sources, but lots of hatcheries got your back. ;)

Ah, one would have to build a big coop with heating lamps, or have a nice indoor area. Maybe. I know way more about duck rearing than chickens. They Malays sort of remind me of runner ducks.

You're awesome though, thank you!!!
