Hahaha! Same for me, if you came by during the best part of the day you would not know I even had chickens as they are all in the woods. Only when they crow battle do you know. Luckily it does not get as hot here, but can get into the upper 90's but not so much humidity usually.

So sorry for your loss. I know how much you loved her and how well you take care of all you chickens.

Anyone know where I can get a copy of the breed standard. The link on GFF website is not working and I want to know what cockerel I should keep.

I have heard that bielefelder eggs require different humidity levels. I don't know what those levels are but a breeder had trouble filling my order due to not having great hatches as she tried to find the right levels. I had a decent hatch last year with the dry method but they were not the...

So sorry to hear this:(

Has anyone crossed white bresse with bielefelder. I have a nice fast growing bresse pullet that I'm so impressed with, I was thinking of breeding her to a bielefelder roo in the future. Any thoughts on what the chicks would look like.

So cute!

Very nice!

My biele consistently laid a 71g egg.

Glad you made a decision, he is a very handsome boy.

Hope your hatch goes well and I'm sure you will love the breed. Good luck!

Great! This is what I was hoping but I was just not sure if their be talking nature would make them less likely to want to confront a predator to save the ladies.

Sorry about all the fighting with your Roos. I personally want a bielefelder as head rooster but that's because I have young kids that get attacked by mature roosters. I just worry if a biele is up to the challenge of protecting the ladies from predators. I have not yet had a mature rooster...

It is truly a difficult decision, but personally I love your ameraucana.

I had a bielefelder pullet I got from GFF and she was awesome. Although she was big I wasn't that impressed with her size. I never did weigh her though. I was impressed with the size and color of her egg. It was 70g to 72g and 4 to 5 a week. It was a darkish coppery color. I have seen eggs...

I'm planing on ordering a few chicks from them this summer at some point. On a side note has anyone been keeping records of their bieles weight . I would like to know where mine stand since this if my first time raising chicks in my basemen with no outside access.

I have been very pleased with the bieles I got from GFF. In fact I was dissapointed with som I got from a different breeder and sold them so I could get more from GFF.

I would say if you can afford it go with GFF. I had some of the new line bielefelders and got some from another breeder that was the first line imported and there was a huge difference in egg size. The new line direct from GFF consistently laid 71g eggs while the old line I got from another...

Also what percent protien do you feed to your bielefelder chicks?

I have bielefelder eggs hatching today. They are from someone on this thread who had the origional line imported from GFF. I recently had to give up all my chickens and am starting again and Bielefelders were the chickens at the top of my list. I had bielefelders before direct from GFF second...
