The Bantam Breeds:

The Bantam chickens lay eggs just as the large fowl chickens however the egg is sized small-medium. Some breeds produce a white, tinted, or brown egg. Generally Bantam chickens do not lay as many eggs as their larger counterparts. 

Some of the bantam breeds make excellent broodies. A "Broody" is a hen who has a strong natural urge to brood (or sit on) to incubate fertile eggs to hatch chicks. Broodies truly are The BEST Incubators around! A Good solid broody is an extremely valuable chicken to a poultry keeper.

Breeds common to becoming broody are: Silkies and Cochins. Both breeds are excellent mothers.
