Gold Lace Poland (aka Polish) POL Hens Reserve Now - Ready To Collect from 24th May

Product Description

Our Gold Laced Poland point-of-lay (POL) hens are now available to reserve now. These stunning birds are admired for their intricate gold and black feathering and their bold crests. Polands are an ornamental breed with specific care requirements, best suited to experienced poultry keepers or beginners committed to understanding their unique needs. Fully vaccinated, and typically begin laying their small to medium white eggs at around 24 weeks. Cannot be mixed with full size hybrid hens.

For a smoother transition when bringing new hens home, we highly recommend getting a poultry drink, something similar to this, (available on Amazon - or your local pet shop), when purchasing pure-breed chickens. Moving to a new home and flock can be stressful, and using a drink like this can make a real difference in helping them settle in by giving them a boost of energy and vitamins.

What We Offer

Breed: Gold Laced Poland – loved for their golden, lace-like plumage and elegant crests.
Point-of-Lay Hens: Fully vaccinated and healthy, ready for careful integration into your setup.

Why Choose Gold Laced Poland Hens?

Ornamental Appeal: Their intricate gold and black laced plumage makes them a standout in any flock.
Calm Nature: Friendly and gentle, they are delightful companions for ornamental poultry keepers.
Moderate Egg Production: While primarily ornamental, they are reliable layers of small white eggs.

Care Instructions for Gold Laced Poland Hens

Complex Needs: Their crests can limit their vision, making them vulnerable. Housing and outdoor areas should provide extra protection to ensure their safety.
Housing: Dry, well-ventilated coops are essential to keep their crests clean and prevent health issues. Low perches are recommended to accommodate their limited sight.
Outdoor Tolerance: Gold Laced Polands should be housed separately or with other gentle ornamental breeds such as Silkies, Pekins, or Sablepoots. Avoid mixing with hybrids, and always introduce them slowly over several weeks or months.
Feeding: Growers' pellets until 18 weeks, transitioning to layers' pellets as they approach laying age. Fresh greens and occasional treats are excellent supplements.

Important Information

Flock Compatibility: Gold Laced Polands thrive in dedicated flocks or alongside gentle breeds. They are not suited to hybrid hens due to temperament and vaccination differences. Ideally, they should not join existing flocks and require slow introductions to minimise stress.
Vaccination: Fully vaccinated for their health and protection.
Group Size: A minimum of three is recommended to ensure social happiness.
Collection: Available for collection only from 1st February 2025.
