Polish

Little is known about the history of the Polish breed. At this time, there is no evidence that proves that they even came from Poland! The oldest record of the breed is a statue located in Vatican City that greatly resembles a Polish Chicken. The breed as a whole has a mysterious history, but because of their beauty, it is quickly becoming one of the most popular breeds in the world.

Our Black Crested Roo is very tame for a rooster. I caught him when we first got them, and he was very relaxed. He is not aggressive at all, although he's not a fan of human contact. He is very good to his Harem though. He let's them have the food scraps first, and alerts them when a bird flies overhead. I couldn't ask for a better rooster. Plus, I love his 'fro. big_smile.png

Pros: They are cool looking
Cons: have bad eye sight due to head feathers

I have Silver laced and white polish. I enjoy watching my Polish in the evenings. Recently my Female Polish her name is Edwina hatched out six baby chicks and she is an awsome mother.

Pros: Stands out in a crowd.

Very unique ornamental. They kind of mind their old business but they aren't shy. Mine get along well with the rest of the flock. Visitors are totally taken with them and they always get a laugh. I have raised a lot of Polish birds and have never had one aggressive roo. Average layers of smaller sized eggs.

Pros: This bird is pretty and fun to watch
Cons: Can't see well, gets mistreated by regular birds, and seems to be below average intelligence.

I didn’t like owning the White Crested Black Polish. She seemed kind of stupid (comparatively speaking) and none of the other birds liked her. That combined with the crest blocking her vision meant a lot of problems for her. Probably would not own again.

Breed Details:

Along with the vibrant color array that the breed already has, Breeders are constantly making new colors, such as the Black Crested White Polish and Red Crested Red Polish. Frizzled polish are becoming more popular as well, and there are even a few breeders working on Naked Neck (NN) Polish, and NN Frizzled Polish. I have 7 colors of polish and greatly enjoy their unique personalities. They are flighty, but with a little effort on the ownerÂs part, they will tame, and make great pets. The chicks are a little harder to start off than some other breeds, but in the long run, it is more than worth it to choose this breed.
