They are a dual-purpose breed with yellow skin that is used to produce both meat and brown-shelled eggs. All of the plumage is buff or straw colored. Their appearance is very strong and stable with clean legs. They have very small cushion combs that are set firm and low on the fore part of the head. Females will weigh 5 1/2 pounds or more while, males weigh about 7 1/2 pounds
