You may have had the opportunity to see one at a local poultry show or soon will, they’re the newest bantam to hit American shores.
Let me tell you a little about this exciting breed. Seramas are the smallest and lightest bantam chicken in the world, originating in Malaysia.
Seramas are unlike most poultry breeds, they are a vertical bird, not horizontal like we are accustomed to seeing. They have a proud stature and hold there wings straight down and their chest is big and held high and upright . When I first saw this little proud bird the first thing that came to my mind was, they looked just like little soldiers.
Seramas have a very docile temperament , character is one of the outstanding assets of this breed. They are not flighty and are the ideal chicken for showmanship.
American breeders, have in ten years, succeeded in developing a beautiful bird that is capable of breeding like offspring and correct color varieties.
Walking down the isles of a poultry show the American Serama will catch the eye of anyone passing by.
The American Serama has been accepted by ABA.
Dedicated breeders are now working on getting the
American Serama by APA.
