The whites are quite meaty, lay a medium sized egg and are raised primarily for meat production. The blacks are a little less meaty (not by much) but lay a very large egg. The black ones seem to be like a "dual purpose" version of the Bresse. Many people use the black ones for meat, but if you want to have the "true" Poulet de Bresse, it is the white one raised in a very specific manner.
