Faverolles Salmon and Blue Salmon Created by barngodess Breed Information, Comments, and Experience with breed:
Large dual purpose bird. Extremely docile breed. Lays a cream colored medium to large eggs. Does very well in confinment, but loves to free range as well.
This breed originated in France, and is very sweet and even-tempered as a general rule. In the US, the most common coloration is Salmon; whereas in Europe they can be found in blue, white, cuckoo, mohogany, etc.
Beautiful, absolutely Beautiful birds! I'm expecting chicks tomorrow (two Favarolle hens and one rooster.) I just can't wait. I hope mine grow up to be as lovely and healthy looking as these.
