Chick Spotlight:
Salmon Faverolles (pictured above)- originated in France, mainly for production of winter eggs and heavy table poultry though now they are a rare variety mainly kept for exhibition and display. An odd fact, each bird has five toes on each foot. The striking difference in male and female plumage patterns makes this variety a very interesting and challenging breeding project. They are one of only a few standard breeds that lay cream-colored or tinted eggs that are produced when brown and white egg breeds are crossed.
