Description

Cackle Hatchery® has been breeding a large selection of poultry types for decades, including the Black Breasted Red Phoenix. While some aspects of this breed can be traced back thousands of years ago to the Onagadori breed in Japan, it was actually developed in post-World War II Germany. They have very long tails, and they lay small cream or tinted colored eggs. Place your order today and we will ship your Black Breasted Red Phoenix baby chicks or give us a call if you have any questions!

Many people who like this breed of chicken also like the miniature version of the breed, the Black Breasted Red Phoenix Bantam Chicken.

    These hatchlings arrived healthy five months and are now beautiful chickens. We have 3 hens and 3 roosters, of this breed. They are docile, beautiful, and unique- eye catching! They do well with other breeds of chickens, and were raised with 5 turkey hatchlings. They are consistent egg layers. Eggs are small and rich. I recommend this breed!

  2. Cassandra Burns

    We love the Phoenix breed. Our oldest daughter has shown a Phoenix for the last 5 years in 4H. She has gotten high remarks on her roosters each year. They are beautiful birds that we will continue to have for years to come.

    Best chickens ever!

    We love these chickens. They are calm around people and predator resistant. At feeding time, my kids can walk up to these hens and pick them up. We had a dog in the yard chase our chickens this past fall. He caught our heavy chickens, but all of our phoenix (15) were up in the trees and on top of our neighbors house 500 ft away! They are broody in their first year, and lay a surprising amount of eggs. As ours came into lay, they started the same time as red sex links. They respond well to lights in the winter, and are required if you want egg production to stay high in the fall. The eggs are smaller, and the hens will hide nests if they free range. About half of the roosters will grow long beautiful tails. They need more space that is out of mud and ice, otherwise their tails will break from dragging feathers on the ground. These are the best phoenix that I have seen that came from a hatchery. If you’re looking for an exotic chicken that lays well, these are it! Highly recommended

    I love my black breasted red Phoenix chickens.

    The black breasted red Phoenix are beautiful chickens. They are very docile. Although I only purchased them this spring, they have already hatched 2 chicks. (I only let them them sit on 2 eggs.) Strangely, one of the chicks is white. I rate them a 4 because although I have 4 hens, they have not produced any eggs since they hatched the chicks.

    Great Chicks, Till the hawk.

    The chicks arrived with several other breeds, we had a case of ”shipping fever” and sadly lost some
    Crackle quickly replaced my chicks.

    We had them indoors for quite some time, and they all grew up to be happy and healthy. That is until the local hawks decided to pay a visit and break into the coop.

    I still have one male who is just stunning and already has about three-foot tail feathers at just shy of one years old.

    Will definitely order again! Usually do every January!

    Beautiful Birds

    This breed is absolutely beautiful. Friendly enough if you handle them early. Did not do too well with my larger breeds, a little too docile.

    I just wanted to say thank you for the excellent service and communications. The customer service department was great, very patient and understanding. This was my first chick purchase and I wasn’t sure how everything worked so I was a little concerned. All the chicks arrived in great condition and I couldn’t be happier with the folks at Cackle Hatchery! Thanks Again,
