THE SERAMA BANTAM-
ORIGIN: Serama originate in the Malaysian state of Kelantan, apparently through the crossing of Japanese and Malaysian bantams] Other stories of the birds derived from a gift of some small chickens by the King of Thailand to a local sultan in ancient times. Small chickens have always been popular pets in this area and are often referred to as "ayam katik" (pygmy chickens) and "ayam cantik" (pretty chickens).

CHARACTERISTICS: The Serama are characterized by their upright posture, full breast, vertical tail feathers held upright and tight up to the body and vertical wings held down nearly touching the ground. In Malaysia they are described as brave warriors and archangel chickens, because of their very human like appearance.
They are the smallest breed of chicken in the world. Typically, under 500g, but with even smaller birds that are under 250g being bred in its native Malaysia. However, size alone does not define a Serama. A small chicken without the Serama "type" is not a Serama, but just another small bantam.
The following describes the overall characteristics of "Malaysian type." The Americans and Europeans have defined variants thereof.

CLUBS: The Serama is promoted by several organizations in the U.S. One is known as "The Serama Council of North America". This council helped to introduce the Serama to North America in various National Poultry shows. In the spring of 2004 a Serama-only show, known as the Cajun Classic, was held in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The American Serama as put forth by the Serama Council of North America has now gained acceptance by the American Poultry Association and the American Bantam Association as of April 2011 with the White color variety being the first to be accepted.
