They are most likely from Italy, but some are still not sure that's their true origin.

So basically they were in poland and some guy exported them to Italy. Thanks

It's one of those breeds that are confusing on exact origin, just to simplify things abit.

Actually they aren't i just learned. Padavona have beards polish do not. Padavina are slightly larger than polish also. Padovana associated more with Italy and polish with Poland... or so I'm learning

In the Netherlands we see them as seperate breeds. Polish do not have beards and can have crests differently coloured from their body colour. They also tend to be normal sized fowl, but do come in bantam size. Padovana are smaller have beards and their crest is as far as I know always the same colour as the rest of their body. But most countries seem to only differentiate them as bearded and non-bearded. Laced Polish tend to be Padovana.
