Minorca
Minorcas are also called the "Red Faced Black Chicken", and to look at it it's no wonder why. They have red faces, huge red wattles and large red combs. Their earlobes are also large, but white. Minorcas are the heaviest of the Mediterranean chicken breeds and while they were originally bred to produce large white eggs, breeders today don't always select for those traits. Therefore some of today's Minorcas won't lay as well as the originals.
