Bielefelder Chicks

Discover the impressive Bielefelder Chickens at Purely Poultry, a breed that perfectly blends practicality with beauty. Developed in the 1970s by German breeder Gerd Roth, Bielefelders have quickly become a favorite among poultry enthusiasts for their versatility, making them the go-to choice for both egg production and meat. Often called the “Uber Chicken,” these birds stand out for their unique combination of size, temperament, and productivity, making them a remarkable addition to any backyard flock.

Bielefelders are known for their striking appearance. Hens display beautiful, rich brown feathers delicately patterned with white and gray bars, while the roosters boast a vibrant display of orange hackles and backs, offset by black tails and white barring. Beyond their good looks, Bielefelders are large, with roosters reaching up to 12 pounds. Their gentle, friendly nature makes them an excellent choice for families, especially those with children. These birds are easy to handle and have a calm demeanor, adding a peaceful dynamic to your flock.

When it comes to egg production, Bielefelder hens are prolific layers, producing up to 200 large brown eggs per year, often with a subtle pinkish tint. Their productivity starts at a young age, offering a reliable supply of eggs throughout the year. As a dual-purpose breed, their large body size makes them ideal for meat as well, offering the best of both worlds for poultry keepers interested in sustainability and versatility.

One of the standout features of Bielefelders is their auto-sexing trait, which allows you to easily distinguish males from females right after hatching. Pullet chicks display a unique chipmunk stripe down their backs, while the cockerels are lighter with a distinct yellow spot on their heads. This makes flock management simpler, allowing you to plan and organize your birds from day one. Plus, Bielefelders are low-maintenance and adapt easily to various environments, making them a fantastic option for both novice and seasoned chicken keepers.
