I am just so enamored with this little hybrid NN/Bielefelder! She's one week old today and really knows how to work the camera.
So sweet! Will she be the only NN Bielie mix chick or will she have other mixes to hang out with? People who have NNs really love them from all the reviews I've come across.

This is just my experience but Biels are no friendlier than any other breed I have.... Ameraucanas, BCM, Cream Legbars, assorted Marans. They are just bigger, calmer, maybe the best way to describe them is not as flighty but it is more like an elephant versus a monkey. Just calmer in a more lumbering big bird kind of way. I do like them very much. They are so beautiful. I am picking up 9 more chicks tomorrow and anyone that has fed Biels will enjoy the pictures I got yesterday from the breeder. She said the other day the chick feeder was upside down and when she picked it up there were Biels inside.I've read through the posts, but I'm not sure if this question has been answered:
Had anyone been able to find a breed mix that doesn't quite consume is weight in food?
Bielefelders seem great, except that one thing, is there any way too get a more economical bird, without losing the friendliness?
I guess if it's always in the feed, "Cereal" Legbar might be an appropriate name.I have some biel/cereal legbar mixed chicks with one male out of the group. I also picked up a Plymouth Rock female pullet. They are both always in the feed bin.
