“What a quirky chicken! Our Salmon Faverolles, Hazel, has always been a unique individual. All the other chickens will be over here doing something useful and she‚Äôll be over there, just sitting around in the grass. She‚Äôs at the bottom of the pecking order and gets picked on a lot, but that‚Äôs just the way of the chicken I suppose. She has never been the best layer; she‚Äôs only three and she hardly layed any eggs this past summer. But she‚Äôs so cute and sweet. She is very quiet, and most often makes an inquisitive cooing noise which I love. I would not buy this breed again based upon Hazel‚Äôs laying ability, but I still love having her around.”
“I have purchased three different times from MPC, and my Salmon Faverolles, Clementine, did not disappoint! She is the last born in my mixed flock of 15, including 2 roosters. First off, they are absolutely stunning! She is curious, and funny, and I call her "my lead investigator". She is the first to get into anything, and check out new things. I was initially weary because this site warns about how they are bound to be bullied, but she stands up to my alpha hen and rowdy boys without batting an eye. I will never go without a salmon in my flock again :)”
“We have one Salmon Faverolles as part of a 6 chicken mixed flock. She is a little flighty but you can catch her if you need to. Not the friendliest of the bunch, but not mean at all. Her best quality is she's a steady layer. She has been laying faithfully every other day through the dead of Minnesota winter even while all my other hens have decided to take a vacation. She's really vocal and will scold me anytime I do anything with the hen house (clean, etc). If you're looking for a good, consistent layer of light brown to pink colored eggs, this is your gal.”
“My two Faverolles, Martha and Dory are the sweetest and most friendly hens! They are talkative and have friendly loving personalities! A must-buy if you want a sweet lap chicken!
10/10!!!”
“Josie is the quirkiest of my flock-- always doing her own thing and yelling about it. I enjoy her very much. She has a sweet personality and doesn't mind being handled. She sounds a bit like a barking dog rather than a chicken, but I find it endearing. She fits right in with my other girls-- I've no trouble with her being bullied. We love her beard and her funky feet.”
“Omg! She is hysterical! Her personality is off the charts! She is such a butter ball in looks. Lots of playful energy but very sweet and can sit on my lap and chill. Can‚Äôt wait to see her color as she grows!”
“She is big and beautiful and SO SWEET! Her coloring is so interesting I can just stare at her forever. She also lays just as much as my white leghorn (every day). I love her!”
