This French breed of chicken was developed in 1860 near a place called Faverolles.   They were developed to be a dual purpose bird although today they are primarily used for show.  They lay a large quantity of medium size cream colored eggs.  Being a bit of a loner they are a very quiet personality and need to be in an unmixed flock because they tend to be at the bottom of the pecking order.  They are very fluffy with a beard and muffs.  They also have 5 toes with feathered feet.  Very fun to watch.  They can handle confinement and are a good bird around humans.
