- chicken. There are two rare Scots breeds, the Scots Dumpy and the Scots Grey (not to be confused with the former Scots cavalry regiment). The dumpy, as the name suggests, is a short-legged breed, which comes in a variety of colours and provides good layers and good broody hens. The speckled Scots Grey, on the other hand, is less inclined to sit on eggs but lays big eggs for the size of the bird and its longer legs enable it to cope with rougher terrain. They are a particularly pretty breed.
