Bird of prey is a good way to describe it, very striking looks. Mine a laying, medium light brown eggs. I'm definitely enjoying them, I love unique breeds.
Until I was given these I didn't know anything about them, I was told they are a meat breed but mine lay well and are fun to have around. Great at free ranging and easy going in the flock. My pictures don't do them justice, they are very pretty.
A few weeks ago I was given a couple of Russian Orloffs. After their quarantine period they blended in with the Farm Yard Flock really well but up until today have been really shy. Today they discovered the feed room where lots of good oats and sunflower seed fall on the floor. Not so shy...
