Product Description
An old French breed named after the town of Houdan, which traditionally has been a source of poultry for the Paris market. The Houdan is a dual-purpose chicken that is also ornamental. Its crest, V-comb, and beard likely were bestowed by Crevecoeur and Polish ancestors, while its five toes were contributed by the Dorking. The Houdan may be either large or bantam in one of two color varieties – mottled is the original; white was developed in the United States.
The hens lay white-shell eggs and tend toward broodiness but are not particularly adept at it.
