Baby Chicks: Silver Laced Polish

Silver Laced Polish chickens are a very unique breed of chicken with their huge bouffant crest of feathers and v-shaped comb.

They are tame but their behavior can be a bit wacky since their crest limits their vision. When in a flock with more aggressive breeds, Polish will tend to be on the low end of the pecking order.

Egg laying is varied in this breed - some lay well and some very poorly. In short, Polish chickens are sweet, beautiful exhibition birds and can be good layers in the backyard flock, but they're unreliable. Please note that our flocks produce a mix of bearded and non-bearded Polish.

Silver Laced Polish are no longer available for the 2024 hatching season. Check out our other Polish chicken breeds available.
