Abstract

An old Russian breed of Orloff chickens is widely known not only in Russia but also in other countries. It has been included in the poultry catalogues of chicken breeds in many countries. Many papers have been published about this breed and series of studies have been conducted to clarify its genetic characteristics. Due to its wide within breed diversity - including several varieties depending on plumage colour, body size (Large Fowl vs. Bantam forms) and geographic distribution, descriptions of the breed and requirements for its standard appearance and plumage may vary in different countries and between breeders.
