Phoenix are an ancient breed in Japan where they were kept in the imperial gardens. Individual males were given special care and the tail feathers sometimes developed to the fantastic length of 20 feet. Modern fowl are still unusually handsome in color and combinations of silver and black and tails are striking although of more ordinary length. There has been much confusion as to the proper name for this breed. It is now generally accepted that the single comb birds as pictured above should be called PHOENIX.

Customer Product Reviews
With watching my twin grandsons who are shy of 3 years old, they have been helping me feed the assorted brreds of chicks since I received them last June, 2010. Our favorites are the Phoenix, a very calm and talkative smaller breed of chicken that follow the boys around the henhouse. "Jake and Owen" sit on a bucket and pet their backs and feed them out of their hands. I feel confident that the boys would not get hurt from this breed, which is a plus. I would certainly purchase more of the Phoenix breed in my new shipment of hens if they were available to purchase!!
I bought 25 of the Phoenix last spring. I sold a few to friends. I have 14 left -- real nice and calm. Great chicken to have in the flock. Here it is the 22nd of January, 2011 and they are laying eggs everyday, and been so for the last 2 weeks
The Phoenix is a very beautiful breed. I had a Phoenix. They are very good perchers. They re very calm. I love this breed.
These are the most beautiful birds I have ever seen. I highly recommend these chickens!
I have 2 of the Phoenix hens and I have to say that these are the nicest chickens. I have an assortment of other chickens but these birds are extremly calm and let you hold them without fussing. They are by far our favorites!
My husband, son and I wanted to thank you for shipping out our baby chicks to us fast and safe! They arrived on Sunday! We also wanted to thank you for the 2 surprise baby chicks that made for a total of 27!! We can't wait for them to grow up so we can see what kind they will be! They are all doing great! Thank you!

I ordered your beauthiful Phoenix chicks for my twelve-year-old niece last spring. The birds arrived very healthy and all survived to adulthood. She has made a nice little business selling the roosters to neighbors and passerbys who see these magnificent birds!
These stately little ones are so cute and lively. Since their arrival, all the kids love these uniquely colored chicks!
The Phoenix is the best ckichen I have ever owned and raised on my farm . It is the nicest chicken ever.
