Pretty much anything gamefowl would apply. All these different types are blanketed under gamefowl. And not gamebird

Truly sorry! I'm not here to judge! Really - I am not! By the tone of my first message, I could see why you think I am! I am definitely a new chic owner. I'm taken back by the lack of information about Cowan Roundheads

Gamefowl are amazing breed of chicken and most breeds were derived from the original gamefowl in the jungles of Asia.

They lay pretty well in spring and summer, but virtually nothing in fall and winter.
they will lay until they are ready to brood (hatch the eggs on the nest). So you will get about 6-12 eggs and then she will typically try to sit on them.

They are great mothers and protectors and will fight anything to protect their chicks (including coyotes, dogs, humans, everything). Unless they are trained then they are really nice to their owners.

My two daughters love my gamefowl. especially the trained (hand-raised, not wild ones). if left to free range they tend to go semi-wild, which they do well

Dont worry, you'll be fine with them. Just dont put two roosters together lol.

Hens will be able to fly really good, so if you want to them to stay in your yard you'll probably need a roof over pen/cage.
