[ArizonaNessa]

it is my understanding that Polish is a breed and Houdan (sp?) is another breed of crested chicken. Not the same. Please correct me if I am wrong. Mottled is the color.

I am not sure if Houdan have a fifth toe?????? Houdan and Polish are not related.

It sure does look like a Mottled Houdan!

Tolbunt, if I see correctly, are black, brown and white patterns in a random order in their feathers.
