Hi Shellz. Where are you located? We’d be interested in buying some chicks, but we’re in Canada.
Here is a 21 week old cockerel & below is a 30 week old cockerel.
Will be gearing up for the breeding season soon.These birds are a real pleasure to raise. Very docile. Harvested a 16 1/2 week cockerel back in the fall. He was 7 1/2 lbs live weight & dressed out at 5 lbs. Fed the 3 of us for 2 days & made an excellent chicken soup as well.
He free ranged with the flock with no special diet & remained tender & tasty. Males when raised together don't fight. I can't say enough good things about these birds. Now I know why they were the quintessential homestead bird of Belgium. I plan to raise these birds exclusively.
