These bantams are considered an old breed in Poland. They are found, as you can see, in many colors. They are very good on range, quite hardy and independent and have a tendency to prefer sleeping in trees.

The hens produce about 100 lightly tinted eggs/year and are good broodies. The birds weigh around 1 kg. They have single combs, but occasionally you find specimens with small crests behind the comb.
