If you’ve been searching for the perfect Standard Old English game fowl for your home, the professionals at Hatchery® are here to help. We’ve spent decades developing the Splash Standard Old English, a unique chicken that is noted for its white and black spotted feathering. Although the males of this breed are very territorial, the hens make excellent brooding mothers. They are also great for exhibitions, and they tend to live a long time. Keep in mind we also have miniature versions of this breed available. For more details about the Splash Standard Old English, contact us today! It is an excellent choice for someone to have a free range flock of poultry (1 male and 10 hens). This flock will have a better chance of evading predators than most other poultry breeds. The hens make good brooding mothers for sitting on the eggs and hatching the baby chicks and raising them. This breed is generally genetically hardy with long healthy lives.
