​houdan
breed origin: FRANCE

Black Mottled Rooster "OZZY"

Houdan Trio

This old French breed is known for its fine meat and medium-large white eggs.

Cousins to the Crevecoeurs, Houdan's are also related to the Polish breed of chicken. Just like Polish and Crevecoeurs, Houdans are crested with fluffy 'dos and have a v-shaped comb  (in the UK and Oz they have a butterfly comb). Houdans are unique, however, in having 5 toes and a beard.

Houdans have a friendly temperament and when grown are gentle and non-aggressive. Initially they can be timid but integrate well into mixed breed flocks. They're amenable to confinement and efficient in terms of food eaten to egg ratio.

​The Mottled Houdan is the common variety, although a White Houdan is also recognised. This breed also occurs in a bantam form.

Because this med-large breed has a many desirability which makes them the perfect option to join your small backyard flock and /or as a pet (boys incl.)
