Meet our Poultry

Our chicken yard is full of Dominique hens. Dominiques are the oldest poultry breed developed in the United States. Dominiques are on the American Livestock Breed Conservancy "Critically Rare" list. That means there are "Fewer than 500 breeding birds in North America, with five or fewer primary breeding flocks."

Read more about Dominiques at the Oklahoma Breeds of Livestock Web Site.
