Watch our Facebook group, North Woods Homestead Salmon Faverolles Chickens straight-run chicks for 2023.

We're excited to announce ​​we are breeding some very special chickens on our homestead. Salmon Faverolles ​are listed as a "Threatened" heritage breed on The Livestock Conservancy Conservation Priority List.  Our efforts to breed and share these unique dual purpose chickens will help protect them from being lost forever. 

Faverolles Pullet 2019

​We chose Salmon Faverolles for their well known docile nature, hardiness, early maturity, and great Winter production of tinted medium sized eggs. Faverolles are one of the few five-toed chickens and Salmon is a unique color pattern found exclusively on the Faverolles breed. Faverolles, with their fluffy muffs, feathered feet, beards and sweet disposition are great pets for children. A dual purpose bird, with meat favored by chefs for exceptional tenderness, is efficient for the homestead. This particular variety is also easy to sex by feather coloring so we can identify and offer Pullet chicks and replacement layers for your own flock.

An APA Hall of Fame Grand Master Exhibitor, Licensed Judge, and Breeder helped us cull our foundation stock and was hands-on in the selection of our breeding flock. Our Salmon Faverolles are being bred to the APA Standard of Perfection to provide our community with quality chickens and further The Livestock Conservancy's efforts to save them. ​

** We do our very best to fill orders in the time frame desired. Eggs leaving here will be packed well and are fertile.  Please be aware though, with hatching eggs there are many factors out of our control.  Fresh, fertile eggs that have never shipped hatch at an average rate of 80% or so. It's likely your order will NOT achieve aa 80% hatch rate, if handled very carefully..  We can't be responsible for hatch rates since we have no control over handling in transit.  Thank you for supporting our efforts to help save this special poultry breed. **
