I raised a number of "top hatted " chicken varieties a couple decades ago. The White Crested Black Polish chickens were a favorite of mine! They were very hardy, did well in our Hot Humid summers and Cold Wet winters and lived a long, un pampered, life on average about ten years, but some past twelve and one to fourteen years old! The amazing thing was that many continued to lay eggs up till over ten years of age. They were a quiet flock and the rooster did not sound off constantly either. I loved watching those beautiful birds! I got those great chicks from Murray McMurray and have received many fine quality chicks since 1978 through 2021 order from them. I have ordered successfully from several Hatcheries and have had only bad issues with the postal service delivery occasionally. Best wishes to you Polish Chicken Lovers! I love them too!

We’ve had a super bad luck with Polish, it was so depressing. Goldie and Sylvia were our last try (buff laced and white topped splash). They seem to be doing great though

Kevin 2.0 arrived today! McMurrays posted several polish going in for the surprise chick and I was hoping for one, butttttttt not buff lol. We’d still keep him and love him, but my friend who lost all her Polish has been waiting for me to hatch some. So I figured I’d let her have it

Here's everyone coming to lick the potato chip bowl Pebbles is the tolbunt, stretching to see what's going on, and Esmeralda was first up for a crumb. Elsa is top chick tho, so they know to back away.

Oh yea, and that's a bed i got for my dogs that the chickens have decided they like sitting on.
