Purely Poultry is thrilled to offer the Ginger Red Standard Old English Chicks, a breed that perfectly captures the charm and legacy of the Old English Game.

The history of the Old English Game breed stretches back through the ages, making these birds a living piece of poultry heritage. Known for their spirited personalities, the Ginger Red variety is lively, resilient, and full of character. Their proud lineage has left a lasting influence on many other chicken breeds, and they remain a favorite among those who appreciate both aesthetics and tradition. For show enthusiasts, males are often dubbed to give them a sleek and refined look in competition.

Although they’re not primarily known for egg production, Ginger Red hens offer a steady supply of around 120 white eggs annually. Their broody nature and strong maternal instincts make them excellent caregivers, ensuring the safety and well-being of their chicks. In addition to their ornamental qualities, these chickens offer practicality as well, with balanced muscle distribution that makes them suitable for the table. Their robust constitution allows them to live up to 15 years, making them a valuable and enduring presence in any flock.

Ginger Red Standard Old English Chickens thrive in free-range environments, where their curious and energetic nature can shine. These birds are happiest when they have the space to explore, and they tend to be a bit flighty and vocal, always on the lookout for new adventures. Their natural alertness and agility help them avoid predators, making them a great fit for various climates and conditions. It’s important to manage multiple males in the flock with care, as they can be quite territorial.
