Our Phoenix Bantam rooster weathervane was originally commissioned by a customer who raises Onagadori type long tail chickens. This weathervane was to go atop her “Banty Barn”. I had never heard of these birds prior to receiving the commission but have since discovered they are quite fascinating (discovering interesting new subjects is one of the best things about this business!).
Phoenix Bantams are descendents of a Japanese chicken breeding program that date back centuries. Their most distinctive feature is their extraordinarily long tails. While not quite as long as their most direct ancestors, the Onagadori, they are still spectacular. These birds are given special high roosts to protect and encourage the development of their long tails.
We have made a number of these rooster weathervanes for customers around the country. They have appeared on top fence posts, barns, aviaries, cupolas and one even presides over its domain from atop a turret on a 10,000 square foot home!
The Phoenix Rooster that appears here was made out of copper with gold leaf accents on the beak, shoulder epaulets, mid-tail feathers and legs. Other options for gold leafing could include the arrow tip, comb and wattle. We have made this bird with red eyes and yellow eyes. As with most of our weathervanes, the choice of eye color, optional gold leafing and inscriptions are up to you. Please give us a call at (800) 726-8736 if you have any questions about our Rooster Weather Vanes or we can be of additional assistance.

Because we specialize in custom copper weathervanes, we can make different breeds of chickens, depending on our client's preferences. The Phoenix Bantam Rooster weathervane pictured above was made for a breeder. These roosters can grown tails that are up to six feet long! The customer who commissioned this weathervane ordered it in the small size and put it on top of her chicken coop. We could certainly do other chicken breeds such as Ancona, Araucana, Leghorn, Rhode Island Red and Plymouth Rock chickens to name but a few.
