Faverolles Thread

[FleurDeLisChick]

Well, like I said, I'm not breeding or showing so I really don't mind if they're not up to par with the breed standard. I bought them because they are sweet and pretty and they'll make a nice contribution to my egg basket when they start laying.

I was so busy with the show I forgot to post pictures but here they are:

Here are some pictures from the show, my pullet got reserve breed out of 18 faverolles and my cockerel got 1 out of 6 cockerels.

Taking feedback on my roo...is he ok for breeding? Not going to be anything more than small homestead flock and 4h.

He should be fine as long as he's hardy and somewhat resembles the breed. For homestead you want to put performance and health above all else.

there's a guy selling a flock of Salmon Favs here and he says they are pure. However he has one solid white bird. I know there are white Favs but, is that normal? Is his flock tainted or is that an anomaly? Anyone with input on their experiences would be greatly appreciated.

Pretty sure it's ok to see the white recessive gene show up. Where are you, or where is this guy, I need more whites!
