Hardy, self-sufficient, and strikingly beautiful, the Dominique is a breed worth bringing back to the farmyard.

Why Choose Dominique?

• America’s original breed — The Dominique holds the distinction of being the oldest chicken breed developed in the United States, with a history stretching back to the early 1800s
• Distinctive cuckoo barred plumage — Their unique irregular cuckoo pattern and rose comb give Dominiques a handsome, one-of-a-kind look
• Excellent foragers — Naturally self-reliant and efficient on pasture, making them an ideal low-input farm bird
• Cold-hardy and resilient — The rose comb is highly frost-resistant, and their tight feathering holds up beautifully in harsh winters
• Calm and manageable — Known for a gentle, even temperament that makes them easy to work with
• Dual-purpose heritage breed — Steady layers of brown eggs with a good meat-type body
• Farm-fresh fertility — Eggs collected from healthy, well-managed birds for strong hatch potential

What to Expect

Each egg is carefully gathered and stored before shipping to protect viability. Dominiques are a moderately maturing breed that settle into laying and farm life with ease. Raising Dominiques is more than keeping chickens — it’s participating in the preservation of a breed that helped build American agriculture.

Please note: Hatching eggs are a live product. Hatch rates cannot be guaranteed as results depend on incubation conditions outside our control. All sales are final.
