Houdan Chicken: The Complete Scientific Guide to France's Crested Heritage Breed: Genetics, Behaviour, Husbandry, Productivity, and Conservation - Softcover
Synopsis
Among the many historic poultry breeds developed in Europe, few are as instantly recognizable as the Houdan. With its rounded crest of feathers, striking V-shaped comb, full beard, five toes, and mottled black-and-white plumage, the Houdan is a living masterpiece of centuries-old selective breeding. It is a breed that combines elegance with productivity, making it equally admired by farmers, poultry historians, and exhibition enthusiasts.
Unlike many modern commercial chickens bred for a single purpose, the Houdan was developed as a true dual-purpose bird, capable of producing high-quality meat while maintaining excellent egg-laying ability. Its calm temperament and unusual appearance have allowed it to survive changing agricultural trends that caused many traditional breeds to disappear.
The story of the Houdan is also the story of rural France—of farmers who carefully selected birds generation after generation, creating one of the world's most distinctive and genetically valuable chicken breeds.
