Polish chicken
〔date=August 2015}the chicken encyclopedia:author-Gail damerow〕
The Polish or Poland is a European breed of chicken known for its crest of feathers. The oldest accounts of these birds come from The Netherlands; their exact origins are unknown, however. In addition to combs, they are adorned with large crests that nearly cover the entirety of the head. This crest limits their vision, and as a result can affect their temperament. Thus, though normally tame, they may be timid and easily frightened.〔("Chicken Breeds" ), My Pet Chicken, accessed March 19, 2011.〕
Polish chickens are bred primarily as a show bird, but were originally productive egg layers. Accordingly, Polish rarely go broody and are noted for their white eggs. There are bearded, non-bearded and frizzle varieties.
==Etymology==
The origins of the breed's name are uncertain. The breed could have been named after the country of Poland. Its name also could have come from the Middle Dutch word ''pol'', meaning "head", in reference of the Polish's dome-shaped skull.
