Ko-Shamo

A variant of Shamo (Gallus gallus domesticus)

Ko-Shamo

A true bantam Shamo (not a miniature of the large type) with an exaggerated upright stance, broad shoulders, sparse hard feather and a bold 'shrimp-tail' look. Hugely popular with bantam fanciers.

Keeper tips for this variant

Far easier to house than the large Shamos but still scrappy — keep cockerels separated as they mature, and give a dry coop since their thin feathering chills easily.
