A success formula at the Oneto is the
Kids Play Corner with all sorts of
Activity Sheets related to animals.
ONETO
Not the biggest –
but when it comes
to atmosphere
ONETO rules the
roost!
At the bar the judgements are discussed and countless
ideas are born, to attract the visitors at next year’s
show. The Pet Corner for children and the attention for
the New Creations are good examples.

Hengelo bantams are a new breed,
created by years and years of selecting
and purposive adding of striking
characteristics from other breeds
.
* The foot feathering comes from the Dutch Sabelpoot bantams
*The beard comes from the Faverolles bantams
* The crest comes from the Polish bantams
* The hen feathering comes from the Sebright bantams
* The rosecomb with three leaders comes from the Watermael Bearded bantams
TWENTSE CREEPER BANTAM
Above: in dun-gold birchen.
Onder: in dun-gold laced.
Some information on the Twentse Creeper
bantam: Intended to be the Dutch
counterpart of the ‘foreign’ Serama: the
smallest Dutch breed, but with different
characteristics. The pursued object is:
creating a tiny breed with very short legs,
compact body and in new colours that don’t
exist (yet) in other breeds. Again a new
creation by R.J. Vos.
