Modern BB Red Game Chickens
Thursday, May 16, 2013
Modern Games are a breed of poultry that were developed following the outlaw of cock fighting in Great Britain in 1849. They were developed from the Old English breed and have a unique, upright posture that distinguishes them from other chickens. They are used mainly for exhibition purposes and make wonderful birds for both children and adults to show and raise. Out of all the breeds of poultry, many people find the Modern Game to be the most entertaining and rewarding of the lot. They have a very friendly, spunky personality that has won the hearts of many, and their long legs make them fun to watch. Modern Games were featured in the first Standard of Perfection in 1874 and have since dominated the shows, residing in the top 10 most popular exhibition breeds.
The Modern Black Breasted Red Game chicken is just one of the many unique and beautiful birds you can see at Spokane’s premiere Petting Farm, brought to you by Mountain Valley View Farm.

Minorca Chickens
Wednesday, May 15, 2013
The Minorca chicken takes its name for the Island of Minorca, off the coast of Spain in the Mediterranean, where it once could be found in large numbers. Spanish tradition relays that the breed came to Spain from Africa, with the Moors. In fact, it was sometimes referred to as the “Moorish fowl.” Minorca chickens are the largest of the Mediterranean class. They are non-sitters, excellent layers of large white eggs, and are very hardy and rugged birds. The breed has proven excellent on all soil types and adapts readily to range or confinement. In America, the breed made a name for itself due to its great egg laying ability combined with its hardiness and proclivity to excel on range.
The Minorca chicken is just one of the many unique and beautiful birds you can see at Spokane’s premiere Petting Farm, brought to you by Mountain Valley View Farm. We have both Black and Buff varieties.
