Of course I have no experience with the breed, but gave it 5 stars because I really want to try these guys out next year!  I love their mean little faces & it's a bonus that I used to live in Creve Couer & miss it!

Cons: Topknots often get dirty and their lack of vision from them can cause them to get frightened
Very sweet and interesting chickens. Mine lay a nice size white egg.

Pros: Lay HUGE eggs, friendly
Cons: Very rare, shallow gene pool.

Crevecoeurs are really neat birds. They are smart, lay (huge) white eggs and are very friendly. Most of my hens are extremely "talkative" too and the roosters eat out of my hands. Very nice birds. They are in dire need of more people dedicated to working with them.

Pros: They make you happy! Very sociable, easy to keep, blend in well with guinea fowl and Orpington chickens, hens lay a nice egg.
Cons: We have little experience with the breed. From what I can tell after raising a few cockerels, there is a wide range of type in their V combs.

Another positive is that we have confined several young roos together and they do not fight.  It would be very helpful in Crevecoeur breed could have a spot on BYC dedicated to them.
