this is one of our six baby Dominique’s aka Dominicker’s .
Dominique hens tend to be calm, personable birds (a desirable trait in an egg production bird). They have a calm, steady demeanor . The hens tend to be good mothers, brooding and raising chicks with a high rate of success.
The Dominique is hardy and a good forager, traits which are attributed to the harsh conditions in which the breed first developed.
