Description
Richly cloaked in iridescent black plumage with green sheen, the friesian Chicken is a specimen of beauty and resilience. Its lack of undertail coverts uncovers its tidy white feathers, setting it apart in the domestic bird world. This bird exhibits an uncanny knack for free-ranging, often outcompeting other breeds in pursuit of nourishing insets, thus testifying to its independent nature.
