I am so excited. We will be picking up two 10 week old salmon faverolles pullets today! I've always wanted this breed! Does anyone have any advice on raising them or what they are like? Thank you in advance!

Congratulations!! They are great! Usually very friendly (although this may take time if they haven’t been handled much) they have lovely sweet personalities, I only keep faverolles now, they are my absolute favourite! i have a breeding group and also some 11 and 13 week olds that will join the breeding group when big enough, I will attach some pics of the youngsters please upload some pics of your new arrivals!

These are my girls! They are the most calm chickens I have ever dealt with. I already know they will be my favorites lol. How do you keep their feathered feet clean? It's rainy season here so they have gotten mud in their feathers already

It’s dry here and their run is full of grass so they are staying pretty clean at the minute but come winter they won’t look so clean
