Last edited: Dec 5, Oriental Gamefowl and Madagascar Game are loyal in the sense that they will not run away, get flighty or skittish, or object to anything you do with them.

They love following their owner around like a puppy dog, love to be handled, and don't get spooked or distracted like other chickens. For example, if you pick one up, it will not try and spook, kick, and fly off like others. Often if you notice, a normal hen will behave and look around like her brain is flitting from one thing to the next all the time, and she'll often object to you touching her or approaching her.

They aren't like that. They have a good attention span, aren't so hyper about things, and of course. They also don't make obnoxious "egg songs" like other birds. Oh and in a free ranging environment, they're a lot more intelligent about things, and of course can fend off predators much better than other varieties of chickens. And, added on, they're very broody and super moms. There's a reason why small villages and poor communities usually have gamefowl over production breeds.
