Icelandic Chickens
Lyle Behl of Behl Farms is responsible for bringing this wonderful chicken to the USA. His blog chronicles the events that transpired.
We have two older surviving hens that we obtained directly from Lyle a few years ago. They are incredible mothers, fiercely protective of their brood and just an all around pleasure. Hardy, prolific egg-layers, they won't let you down.

The chicks from Sand Hill Preservation Center have grown into 3 wonderful pullets and 2 roosters. I'm looking forward to hatching eggs in the spring to increase the flock size.
