Serama do not breed
true to size. The very tiny size seems to be a recessive gene, so an A
sized bird can come from B and C sized parents.
Serama come in all
colors and do not breed true to any one color.
The complete ancestry
of the Serama is uncertain, but the Red Jungle Fowl, the Common Malaysian
Village Bantam (a hodge’ podge’ of many breeds), the Japanese Bantam, and
the Silkie are likely contributors.
Serama mature at 16-18
weeks.
Serama have a
incubation period of 19 to 21 days.
Serama cannot handle temperatures below 40 F degrees.
The term "type" refers
to the outline or silhouette of the bird. |
