Temperament: Cinnamon Queens have a reputation as being particularly sweet and docile birds. Many owners say they are the sweetest members of the flock.
History: Like several other sex linked breeds, Cinnamon Queen Chickens were developed to meet the needs of modern flock keepers. Most people keep chickens are looking for excellent egg production, and Cinnamon Queens certainly deliver. Cinnamon Queens are a cross of a Rhode Island Red male and the Rhode Island White female.
They are also sexable upon hatching. If you live in an area that does not allow roosters, you need to know the sex of your chicks right away. Female Cinnamon Queen chicks are reddish brown and male chicks are white.
Cinnamon Queens will not breed true. In other words, if a male and a female Cinnamon Queen mate, the chicks will not be sexable at birth, nor are they likely to have the same form and coloring as their parents. Besides excellent egg laying capacity, another big advantage to raising hybrid birds is that they tend to be hardier than true breeds.
