BIELEFELDERS
We raise Bielefelder chickens. These are one of the most popular auto-sexing breeds in the world. Auto-sexing means, of course, that their gender can easily be determined at the time of hatching. But the best part is that they produce lots of large brown eggs! They are a large and extremely docile bird known for exceptional foraging and their ability to survive in a free-range environment. Roosters are protective of hens but very friendly to humans. Hens produce a large amount of eggs (approx. 200/year) and even when they are sitting on eggs they will allow you to take the eggs out from under them without being pecked. There have been two imports of these birds into the States by Greenfire Farms and our lines come from both of these imports. Perfect bird for the sustainable homestead? Yes...pretty much.
Contact us for availability of hatching eggs and/or sexed chicks. I suppose we'd also be willing to sell you eggs for eating but those would be some very expensive omelettes.
Hatching Eggs - $35/Dozen
Sexed Chicks:
Pullets - $20
Cockerels - $5
