If you’re looking to buy Poland chickens, our pure breed Poland bantam chickens are available to reserve for the new season here at East Sussex Smallholders. Often known as Polish chickens, these delightful little birds are available to buy now, and choose and collect your own Polish chickens throughout 2026, and they’re always among our most sought-after breeds. Their fabulous crests, steady temperaments and mischievous personalities make them a real joy to keep.
We also supply Poland hatching eggs for customers who prefer to raise their own, and we generally have a handful of Poland chicks available once the season gets going.
As true pure breed bantams, Polands should live with birds of a similar size and shouldn’t be mixed with hybrids, who can be a bit too pushy for them. They’re a brilliant option for small back-garden flocks, family set-ups, or anyone wanting something eye-catching and full of character.
All bookings are fulfilled strictly in the order they arrive once the season opens, giving early customers the broadest choice of colours and patterns.
If you’re ready to buy Poland chickens, order Poland hatching eggs, or reserve Poland chicks, drop us a message and we’ll add you to the spring list before the popular early batches disappear.
About Poland Chickens
The Poland chicken has a long European history and remains one of the most distinctive breeds you can keep. Their dramatic crests, elegant posture and wide range of colour varieties make them real showstoppers in the garden. Centuries of keeping have also cemented their reputation as friendly, gentle birds that are just as suited to family life as they are to being admired for their looks.
Polands are naturally inquisitive and steady in nature. Their impressive crests can narrow their field of vision, so they do best in a calm environment where they can move about confidently. While not heavy layers, they’ll still provide a small supply of neat white eggs throughout the main laying months.
Pros: Striking appearance, sweet nature, ideal for smaller flocks and family gardens.
Cons: Large crests may need the odd tidy-up, and they’re happiest in clean, reasonably dry conditions.
If you’d like a friendly, unique and truly charming addition to your flock, a Poland chicken is a lovely choice.
