- Crevecoeur-G
Description
The Crevecoeur is an old French breed that was once highly prized for the quality of its meat. The breed was first introduced to the United States in late 1860s but has always been a rarity. Crevecoeurs have a large globular crest on the top of their head and a small V-shaped comb that is mostly hidden by crest feathers. They are also bearded with small, virtually non-existent wattles. At first glance they seem similar to the Polish breed. However, Crevecoeurs are heavier and with blockier bodies than Polish.
Minimum Pre-Order Quantity is 15 chicks. If you would like to order less than 15, come in-store to special order.
