Pullet: Dominique, Shipping Week of 09/05/2023

Dominiques, recognized as a "heritage" chicken breed, have existed for centuries and are currently on the Livestock Conservatory's watch list. While some individuals may struggle to distinguish between Dominiques and Barred Rocks, an observant eye will notice the distinguishing feature of a rose comb in Dominiques instead of the single comb found in Barred Rocks. 

Dominiques are exceptional dual-purpose birds, renowned for their resilience to cold climates, and their hens exhibit remarkable care and nurturing qualities as mothers.

Benefits of Purchasing Pullets 

• Started pullets are an excellent option for people who don't have the time, equipment, or desire to care for chicks.
• These juvenile chicks are sexed twice, once at hatch and again at six weeks old, which reduces your chance of ending up with roosters.
• The minimum order is just 2 chicks!

Additional Pullet Information
