Mottled Houdan

Mottled Houdans were recognized by the American Poultry Association as a standard breed in 1874 after being imported from France. The breed has achieved the much sought after “Label Rouge” certification for excellence in taste and production in France. Houdan roosters are ardent and require a large flock of hens – fertility is excellent. (source: The Livestock Conservancy)
