Bielfelder

Worried about ending up with a rooster? Pick a Bielfelder! They are an auto sexing breed (the color of their chick fuzz is linked to their sex) making the female chicks much easier to identify.  They’re also one of the most docile and friendly breeds out there, known for being calm and easy to handle. Rounding out their fabulouslessness, Bielfelders are also great layers of large brown eggs (up to 260 eggs/year). Their cold hardiness also makes them solid winter egg layers.
