Really have been wanting a couple of these for years now. Any ideal where I can get some? Even eggs I can hatch?
 
In general, Faverolles are not bullies, mostly gentle & docile. It’s a toss up but leaning to no would be my guess.
Would they try to bully through a run fence . My Silkies stay cooped 24/7 , but I am moving to house in 3 weeks with a fenced yard and I wanted some sweet tempered laying hens that I could free range in a fenced yard and coop at night

In that case I think they’d be totally fine, especially if you get them as chicks! If you get lucky, might even get a broody Silkie to raise them if you slip them under her at night!
 
I just wanted to share my new salmon Faverolles babies, hatched right here from our own eggs on the farm! Beyond ecstatic!

I’m very interested in breeding to show these amazing birds, but am having a difficult time finding anything on breed standards. If anyone could help me I would be so grateful!
