Westfälischer Totleger
The ドイツ語:Westfälischer Totleger is a German breed of domestic chicken. It is more than 400 years old, and is a rare breed. As of 2009, only 301 roosters and 1353 hens were officially registered.〔(Das westfälische Totlegerhuhn )〕
==Name==
Although the German word "Tot" means "death" and "Leger" means non-sitters (hens which lay eggs), the real meaning is another. Due to the considerable ability to produce eggs, the breed was called "Alltagsleger" (each day nonsitters, it means it lays an egg each day) or "Dauerleger". Under the influence of Low German the name changed into "Doutleijer". Later, from this Low German word, it developed into "Totleger". Derivation from "lays eggs till the death" is thus not correct.〔Unterweger, Wolf-Dietmar: Das Hühnerbuch: Praxisanleitung zur Haltung "glücklicher Hühner", Graz 2004, 2. Aufl., S. 125〕
