Sultan chicken

[jahya0]

Thinking of adding a couple sultans to our flock. Anyone have them? What sort of temperament and egg laying should we expect?

(We're in Turkey, easy to find them here)

They're ornamental, so egg laying isn't great. Personally is up to the individual bird but the one I had experience with was a sweet animal.

Here is an article describing the breed:

We call them "paçalı tavuk" here. I'd never seen one in America. They're lovely to look at
