Abstract

???????? ?.?.; ??????? ?.?.; ????????? ?.?.; ??c????? ?.?.; ?????????? ?.?.; ?????? ?.?.; ??????????? ?.?.; ????????? ?.?. Poltava chickens are native to Ukraine, with a remarkable history, genetics and economic traits. They include three varieties: Clay, Cuckoo and Black. The Poltava Clay variety exemplifies what can be achieved by thorough selection in transforming a local, low production chicken population into an established breed with high performance characteristics and selected line structure. Two other varieties, the Cuckoo and Black, are extinct but plans for their restoration are underway.
