The Appearance of a Welsummer Chicken
When many people picture the stereotypical rooster, a Welsummer is what they have in mind–this was the same rooster featured on the cornflake boxes! Their hackles and saddles are fiery burnt orange and scarlet, with beetle black tails iridescently shining green, like the bars on their wings. The hens are modest, heathery brown, with their hackles shading to glints of gold and black. Even their eyes are a lovely red bay.
