Well, I lost my absolute favorite hen, my Bielefelder girl named Gretel, to heat stroke today. We went to dinner with some family, and when we got home rigor had already set in. I'm feeling like a pretty awful chicken mommy right now.
Oh no. So sorry. You guys must be getting pretty hot out there. We are heading for upper 90's this week. Summer worries me more than winter. :/ Again, I'm so sorry, why does it always has to be the favorite.
My girl is growing so fast!
She hangs with these little bantam cochins and Millies, and a couple of EE's in a grow out pen. The EE's will be going out soon. There is also a bantam Barred Rock! Never had one before, it is a sweetheart too.
I believe it should. The auto sexing feature comes from the interaction of the barring genes on a partridge base. I think both CCL and Bieles would be partridge if you took away the barring.
So sorry for your loss. I know how much you loved her and how well you take care of all you chickens.Well, I lost my absolute favorite hen, my Bielefelder girl named Gretel, to heat stroke today.

I would like to know the answer to this! I have a Biel roo that is 15 weeks, and CL roo and pullet that are 9 weeks old. I was planning on keeping them separate, but perhaps down the road this would be an interesting blend.
She is lovely, how old is she, and how old are they?My girl is growing so fast!
