Maybe they are Faverolles, but definitely not Salmon. You can google it and compare to yours, then you can see the difference. Salmon colour means pinkish orange - does it look like pinkish orange to you???
@ybmagpye I got them in the rarest of the rare assortment from Murray McMurray. And it doesn't bother me what people say. I am not a poultry shower; I am more interested in temperament and these girls are sooooo sweet! :-)
Thanks for the info. I did not buy them for showing or bloodline breeding so their quality is irrelevant to me. Their temperament is perfect and that is all I care about. They care from a hatchery.
@spyroterra felt the above comment was harsh i agree the quality looks a little lacking but as they are very friendly and good layers would be interested to know which hatchery they came from
i'm getting more chickens on february 2009. 5 black sex-link (pullets) 6 salmon faverolles (pullets) 6 golden comets (pullets) 5 brown leghorn (cockerels) 5 buff orpingtons (pullets) I picked 6 salmon faverolles and 6 golden comets because they're my favorite breeds! i like more the faverolles!
Aren't they just wonderful! My 2 girls are fantastic and one is a great layer. I am still waiting for Not Lemon Head to start laying, but in the mean time Lemon Head give a reliable egg about every 36 hours. And they love to be petted!

I was told that Faverolles rhymes with Chevrolete. So, are we confused now?!

Yeesh, for a moment I was wondering where the Faverolles were. . . Sorry, but those girls were really poor quality.

Those are not very high quality salmon faverolles......
Did you get them from a hatchery?
Otherwise, they are mixed breed.
My little girl is my favorite. LOVE HER TO DEATH.

no,
they are purebreads,
the quality is just not the best
also almost all the hatcheries have purebread chickens cause they only put chickens withen their own kind together

They are among my favorites and I now have a couple crosses with them and they are wonderful, too! You will enjoy them, I do believe! Have fun.

I love faverolles! I have my little salmon faverolle, Mufti, and she has the most adorable muttonchops to match the beard.
