Old English Game

The Old English Game is a British breed of domestic chicken.

[4] Two different standards are recognised by the Poultry Club of Great Britain: Carlisle Old English Game and Oxford Old English Game.

Twenty-eight are recognised by the American Poultry Association,[5] while the Entente Européenne d’Aviculture et de Cuniculture lists thirty-three.

[4] Since the abolition of cock-fighting in 1849, the Old English Game has been kept primarily for show.

Old English Game hens may lay about forty small tinted eggs in a year.
