I always thought Bresse sounded like a neat breed to have, especially Black Bresse. Are you happy with their meat and egg production?

I'm just curious, is your JJ black as well? I am partial to that black color in the chicken world, it's just so pretty. (My spouse's favorite color is orange, so don't mind the rooster in my pfp. 😄 We could have a whole bunch of halloween-colored chickens running around.)

Thanks for giving us such a nice introduction! Very happy Anniversary and welcome to BackYard Chickens!
