These Breeds are Still Available For Purchase in 2025
Here at Chickens For Backyards, we want to remind our loyal customers that there are quite a few breeds of poultry still in stock for sale this year. While there are many kinds of chickens in stock, here are eight we chose to highlight:
Wheaten Cubalaya Bantam
Originating in Cuba, these chickens have several notable features including their low carried tails. They are among several hard to find breeds, and we have them available as baby chicks only.
This is a docile breed of chicken that is ideal for anyone looking for a pet, brooder, or show chicken. They behave well with other chickens and people, and this specific variety has striking black and silver feathers.
A great barnyard or show fowl that is sure to please everyone. It is a delicate bird and is not winter hardy as most breeds of chickens are. The Sicilian Buttercup Chicken does not take well to confinement and more of a free range very active chicken. This chicken breed also does not go broody.
Originating on the Island of Sumatra, this is a popular choice when it comes to rare breed chickens in America. The Blue Sumatra was admitted into the American Standard of Perfection in 2002.
There are a few things that are notable about this chicken’s appearance like the dark to black skin on their face and long tail with black plumage. It was admitted into the American Standard of Perfection in the late 1800s.
As the name implies, this specific variety is notable for the red feathering in the shoulder area, mixed in with the traditional white feathers. The birds have an upright carriage and pheasant-like body and the roosters are noted for their extremely long saddle feathers and tail feathers which is the primary emphasis for exhibitors of this chicken breed.
