Favorolles have ten different plumages; however, the poultry world generally associates Faverolles with the Salmon variety. The hens wear white feathers on the body, breast, and throat. Salmon feathers adorn the top of the hackles, shells, wings, and tail. Faverolles hens look a little daffy with loose feathering, full beards and muffs, feathered feet, and five toes. Faverolles roosters, on the other hand, look altogether different and altogether dignified. Peter F. Merlin in his article “The Fabulous Faverolles” describes the Faverolles rooster “as the peacock of the poultry world.” The rooster has a iridescent dark breast and tail, white hackles and shell feathers, and bronze wings laced in white. A Faverolles rooster and hen look like an elegant butler accompanied by his brassy, blond companion.
