I thought the Bresse would do well for you. They hatched well for me on shipped eggs also. Too bad on Bielefelders

Heck no. I would do well with a chart for all the initials. I only knew the SFH because a friend had some and sold me eggs. 1 hatched out of six. Not good

I learned about them when I heard about landrace breeds... I prefer Icelandics though... maybe one day... *sigh*
