Our straight-run chicks are sold as-hatched, offering the most affordable way to start your journey with these 'barnyard comedians.' This is the ideal option for heritage breed enthusiasts who enjoy raising their birds from day one. While we cannot guarantee gender, straight-run batches often provide a great mix for those looking to establish their own small breeding groups or show strings.

Salmon Faverolles are a unique and historic French heritage breed, currently listed on the Livestock Conservancy "Watch" list. Known as the "barnyard comedians" of the poultry world, they are curious, enthusiastic, and exceptionally sweet, making them one of the most personable breeds you can add to your flock.
 
Why Salmon Faverolles Stand Out:
The Perfect Youth Breed: Due to their docile and calm disposition, they are an ideal choice for FFA projects or Junior showmen. They are easy to handle, safe for children, and perform well in a show setting.
Exhibition & Pet Quality: We offer birds for every level of poultry enthusiast, from exhibition-stock bred to meet strict standards to pet-quality birds that make wonderful backyard companions.
Unique Physical Traits: They are one of the few breeds to feature five toes, along with striking beards, muffs, and feathered feet.
Dual-Purpose History: Originally developed in France for both egg production and meat, they are renowned for being consistent winter layers of cream-colored eggs.
