German BielefelderThis breed was developed in 1970 in Germany and is known as a calm dual-purpose breed. High fertility tested for 2024. Chicks are auto sexing, meaning at hatch the coloration of the chick matches the sex of the chick. Female chicks are dark with a “chipmunk” like stripes, while male chicks are lighter with a pale yellowish dot on the head. Eggs are in the light to medium brown range, unwashed and collected fresh.
