Characteristics
Columbian Pekins are known for their friendly disposition and make excellent pets, especially for families with children. They are relatively docile but can exhibit territorial behavior, particularly the males, once they reach maturity. The hens are often broody and are attentive mothers, though they are not prolific egg layers, typically producing small tinted eggs.
Breeding and Care
Care for Columbian Pekins includes maintaining the cleanliness of their foot feathers to prevent issues such as foot rot. When breeding, it may be necessary to trim vent feathers to enhance fertility. The breed is recognized for its variety of colors, including black, blue, buff, and the Columbian variant, which is increasingly popular among breeders
