White Sultan Chicks

Purely Poultry is excited to introduce the White Sultan Chickens, a breed known for its regal appearance and rich history. Originating from Southeastern Europe and once adored by Ottoman sultans, these birds are a unique and ornamental addition to any flock. With their delicate head crests, feathered beards, and feathered shanks, White Sultans boast a truly distinctive look that sets them apart. Their most notable feature, a fifth toe, gives them an added touch of distinction compared to more common four-toed breeds.

Brought to England in the mid-1800s, White Sultans have since become admired globally, especially for their calm and friendly nature. These birds make excellent pets or show birds, thriving in more peaceful, contained environments. Due to their docile disposition, they are best kept in smaller, well-managed flocks where they can avoid more assertive breeds. Despite being primarily ornamental, White Sultan Hens contribute to the flock by laying a modest number of small white eggs, typically 1-3 per week. Roosters weigh around 6 pounds, while hens are about 4 pounds, making them manageable in most backyard setups.

Recognized by the American Poultry Association, White Sultans are a standout in the All Other Standard Breeds Class at exhibitions, where their elegance is always a showstopper. Their occasional broody behavior adds to their charm, offering a nurturing quality that complements their ornamental appeal. 

Whether you’re adding them for their beauty or for their gentle nature, White Sultan Chickens bring a historical allure to your flock. Order from Purely Poultry today and enjoy the grace and companionship of this extraordinary breed in your own backyard!
