Hatch one of the most unique and charming breeds in backyard poultry. Salmon Faverolle hatching eggs give you the chance to raise these fluffy, five-toed French birds at home — gentle, quiet, and utterly one-of-a-kind in both appearance and personality.
What's included:
- 🥚 Fresh, fertile large light brown/cream eggs from bearded, muffed Salmon Faverolle breeding stock
- 🪶 Docile, quiet offspring — selected for correct type, beard and muff development, feathered feet, and five-toed genetics
- 📦 Carefully packed for transit — individually wrapped and cushioned to maximize hatch rates
Breed highlights:
- 180–200 light brown/cream eggs/year at maturity
- Distinctive salmon and cream plumage with fluffy beards, muffs, and feathered feet
- Five toes — a unique genetic trait that makes them a flock conversation piece
- Exceptionally gentle and quiet — one of the calmest breeds available
- Cold-hardy — dense feathering keeps them comfortable in cold climates
Incubation tips: Faverolle eggs incubate at 99.5°F with 45–55% humidity for 21 days. Candle at day 7 and 14 to check fertility. Increase humidity to 65–70% at lockdown (day 18).
Important: Hatching eggs are a living product. Hatch rates vary based on incubator conditions, shipping handling, and natural fertility. Males and females have distinctly different coloring — females are salmon and cream, males are darker with black and brown tones.
Hatch a rare French gem — order before the next collection date.

Chick care overview
Chick care overview
Brooder temperature: Start at 95°F for the first week, reducing by 5°F each week until fully feathered.
Food & water: Offer chick starter feed and fresh water immediately. Dip each chick's beak gently into the water on arrival to encourage drinking.
Hydration boost: We include hydration supplements in your shipment — add to water for the first 24–48 hours to help chicks recover from transit.
Space: Allow at least 0.5 sq ft per chick in the brooder for the first few weeks.
Watch for: Huddling under the heat source (too cold), panting or moving away from heat (too warm). Active, spread-out chicks are happy chicks.
