The Egyptian Fayoumi is a rare breed of chicken that originated from Egypt. The Egyptian Fayoumi rooster weighs about 4.5 pounds and the hens weigh about 3.5 pounds. The Fayoumi from what I have been told is one of the best breed for 4H shows. Because the breed is rare and I think a vary nice looking bird. The Fayoumi also lays grayish colored eggs that are the size of normal eggs you buy from the store. Fayoumis im sad to say are hardy breed, and particularly well suited to hot climates. So if you live in places like Florida, New Mexico, Arizona, ect. Well thats all i have to say about the Fayoumi at this point. So if you want to know more or want to ask something about the breed just comment on this post. Thanks agian =)
