Breed guide
Serama
Also known as: Malaysian Serama, Ayam Serama
The world's smallest chicken, a Malaysian bantam with a vertical posture, puffed chest, and upright tail. Weighs under a pound in the smallest classes. Kept as pets and for tabletop-style exhibition.
Keeper's notes
Too small and heat-loving to winter outdoors where temperatures drop below 40F; many keepers house them in garages or indoor pens through the cold months. Eggs are tiny and hatch in about 19 days.
