Andalusian
Starting at: $4.71First avail: Apr 16, 2024
The original ancestors of the Andalusian came from Spain, but British poultry fanciers are believed to be the ones to perfect the breed. The Andalusian is most well-known for its striking blue plumage, with ground color being slate blue and each feather being laced with darker blue. Their large red combs, wattles, and white earlobes make a beautiful bird. They have an active disposition and are known to be excellent foragers. The males will develop a large, full tail at maturity along with long flowing saddle and hackle feathers. Like all Mediterranean breeds, they can handle hot temperatures well. This breed hatches black, blue, and splash coloring; there is no guarantee what color you will receive. {{br}} Purpose: Egg Layer Production: 265 Medium White Eggs/Year Temperament: Active, Energetic, Vocal Mature Weight: 4-6 lbs.
