Cackle Hatchery Blue Sumatra Chicken - Not Sexed

Description

This specific variety features blue tinted feathers as well as the long flowing tail and multiple spurs on the legs that these chickens are known for. 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 very few breeders of the Blue Sumatra in the United States and very few have been breeding them as long as Cackle Hatchery Breeding Farms. Our bloodline generally produces 1/3 black/blues, 1/3 blues and 1/3 splash.
