docile temperament. Standard weights at maturity are

males-30 oz. and hens-26 oz.

here. They are quite, distinctively curious, jaunty & have very

attractive lighter ruffled appearance around their face, framing

their dark eyes, rose comb and dark beak.

BLUE COCHIN

NOT AVAILABLE THIS YEAR

All of the Cochins originated from China and were brought to America in 1845. Originally grown for meat and eggs they have become
more of a show bird. We are pleased to welcome these colors to our flock.

WHITE SILKIE            

These unusual birds have black skin and hair-like plumage. Their fifth toe is another of their oddities. They date back to the time of Marco Polo and have remained popular as a superb setter and for their friendly nature.

 

 

 

SILVER DUCKWING OLD ENGLISH

A delightful alternative coloured Old English with a perky

personality.

 

BLACK TAILED BUFF JAPANESE

This delightful bird is best known for their

disproportionately long tail feathers and short legs. This

resembles a sword on the rooster and extends far beyond

their head. They are excellent setters and parents.
