Top chickens and all things fowl....

This is my first 'Top' list.....

At the moment I'm really favouring this:



Despite their weird looks - they're a common enuff breed and can be used as layers and also for meat. They forage well for food and very hardy and resistant to most diseases.

Though know in the states as the Turken - I much prefer its original name Transylvanian Naked Neck which it acquired not from its country of origin but its preference to eating grain that has been soaked in blood..

When we get a place with a yard I hop to get a few of these - they seem ideal to Irish weather conditions..

Next up:



This chicken original came from Pakistan. They're fricken huge and are popular in cockfighting. If i get one of these I'm going to make it a little TRex outfit...

Another of my faves:



The Sultan is a breed of chicken that originally came from Turkey. They obviously dress for sucess but other chickens will pick on them for this reason.. Unlike most chickens they have five toes on each foot.



The Sumatran fighting cock - very popular with the travelling community here. They train them in JuJitsu and Muai thai and fight them to death in cage matches..Unlike most chickens - they are decent enough at flying (in chicken terms anyway)..
