SPECIALTY BREED CHICKENS |
SILKIES |
POLISH (a.k.a. TOP HATS) |
TRANSYLVANIA NAKED NECK (a.k.a. Turken) |
With spectacular plumage and a very friendly disposition, Polish chickens are at the top of our "pecking list". One of my girls will actually perch on my shoulder as i move around the farm, much like a parrot and a pirate!. |
Silkies are the Chihuahuas of chickens - a lot of cluck and no peck! These docile bantams (small birds) are more pet than poultry. Discovered by Marco Polo in China, they actually have black skin under a covering of shimmering white feathers. Although they are not known as great layers, they are known for being very broody (sitting on eggs). |
AMERAUCANA |
This breed is really one that "grows on you". From German and Hungarian origins, their chicks are probably the ugliest babies I've ever seen. The good news is that they lay blue & green eggs, and lots of them. Turkens come in a wide bouquet of colors. If you want productive barnyard "art", this is the breed for you. |
Ameraucanas were developed in the 1970's to weed out some of the genetic problems with their close cousins, the Chilean Araucana. These docile birds come in a variety of colors and lay an even bigger rainbow of colored eggs. They are said to lay blue, pink, green, yellow, and brown eggs, although I can only attest to blue, green, and brown. They are very winter hearty and not very broody, but a very egg colorful choice. |
