Busy, intelligent and active bird, doesn’t mind being confined, but love to roam and is very good at it. They have a reputation for being highly strung, but if you handle the chicks frequently, they will become more amenable.
They are perfectly prolific layers, producing loads of beautifully white eggs per year, rarely go broody and are non-sitters.
