Description
At Cackle Hatchery® we offer the gorgeous Sumatra chicken. This specific color variety features blue tinted feathers as well as the long flowing tail and multiple spurs on the legs that these chickens are known for. Originating on the Island of Sumatra, this is a popular choice when it comes to rare breed chickens in America. The Splash Sumatra has not been recognized by the American Standard of Perfection. There are very few breeders of the Splash Sumatra in the United States and very few of them have been breeding as long as Cackle Hatchery® Breeding Farms. Our bloodline generally produces 1/3 black/blues, 1/3 blues and 1/3 splash. We will ship you the baby chicks that turn out splash. NOTE: the splash will not carry the genetics for the dark skin face like the blue and black Sumatra. Place your order today and remember to contact the team at Cackle Hatchery® if you would like any additional details.

We got a pair of these beauties in our April 2024 exotic chick box and they are so sweet.
My daughter calls them Splish (roo) and Splash (hen) and they are definitely her chickens! They are docile and seem to really enjoy all the attention from her.

I’m so excited for my new splash Sumatras to arrive! For beauty, intelligence, toughness, free-ranging ability, and people-friendly temperament, Sumatras are at the top of my list, alongside the equally majestic American gamefowl. I currently have a pair of 2-year-old black Sumatras from another source: a sweet, curious (okay…downright nosey!) rooster who follows us around like a puppy and a quirky, chatty little hen who flies on our heads. I gifted my first Cackle order of blue and splash Sumatras to a first-time-chicken-keeper friend who loves them like they’re her own children and raves most of all about her gentlemanly blue Sumatra rooster. As a side note, for those with a hatching addiction, this breed makes lovely crosses. My black Sumatra/American gamefowl youngsters are sweet, shiny, long-legged black creatures with multi-colored irridescent barring in shades of teal, navy, magenta, purple, and olive green.

This is my first time ever raising chickens, so these were, perhaps, a bit ambitious to start with. But they turned out to be sweet, inquisitive and smart! The one that turned out to be a roo was my shoulder buddy. I loved him to pieces (just couldn’t keep him because of my city’s restrictions 🙁 ). They are pretty as a picture. Just know your nearly 6 foot high fence won’t hold them if they don’t want and they really love to roost high. They are sometimes in my neighbor’s yard in the morning but come home in a hurry when I break out the cracked corn. They are a little skittish but are also sweet and friendly. I adore them and they are like watercolor paintings in shades of white, grey and nearly black. They’re a gorgeous mix within my eclectic flock.

Our Splash Sumatras are beautiful!
