We love our Polish chickens. They usually run to us whenever they know we're around and follow us everywhere we go. We enjoy picking them up and keeping them while doing chicken chores. Here are some fun facts about them:
Historians believe they were imported from Spain into the Netherlands when Spain inhabited the lowlands between 1579-1713
Polish birds have very calm and docile temperaments. They love to be snuggled and petted.
You might occasionally need to schedule a spa day for your little mop-headed crew.
With their wild crest feathers and sprightly behavior, Polish chickens can be comic entertainers.
Many Polish chickens love to be picked up and even carried around. They’ll fly up to perch on your shoulders or head. And they love to fall asleep in your arms.
Described as an ornamental breed in some circles, this unique and beautiful chicken will surely be the jewel in your flock.
Thank you to the following pages for sharing their insights on the Polish chickens: FeatherBrain, BackyardChickenCoops, and MorningChores.
Enjoy your chickens and stay safe!
