Here are some of my Salmon Faverolle I got last year.









I didn't intentionaly order mine, they came as part of the Rare Breed Special. Mine are all really docile and I haven't had any issues with fights. The only problem I've had is the fact that they like pick feathers off other chickens. They are good layers and I even had one go broody for a short period of time.

I got 16. 1 Silver Laced Polish, 1 Russian Orloff, 3 Brabanters, the 4 Faveroles and some others I never found out due to loosing them to predators before they were full grown.

Here's some pics of when I first got them.

Next spring I'm going to order some more from the Rare Special along with some more from the Surprise Special. I like the diversity of both assortments.

I would love order one but I don't know what to do with all the extras

You can sell them on Craigslist. I've had good look finding excess roosters new homes that way.
