Description:
Add one of these unique White Crested Black Polish chickens to your backyard chicken flock. This ornamental chicken breed is one of our favorites here at My Pet Chicken due to its silly personality.
Polish chickens are a very special and unique breed of chicken with their huge bouffant crest of feathers and v-shaped comb. They are tame, but their behavior can be a bit wacky since their crest limits their vision. When in a flock with more aggressive breeds, Polish chickens will tend to be on the low end of the pecking order. Egg laying is varied in this breed - some lay well and some very poorly. In short, Polish are sweet, beautiful exhibition birds and can be good layers in the backyard flock, but they're not reliable. Please note that our flocks produce a mix of bearded and non-bearded Polish.
