If you are a homesteader, farmer, or backyard breeder looking for a FANTASTIC dual-purpose bird, look no further than the red (combed), white (feathered), and blue (footed) American Bresse - rhymes with bless - chicken. They are highly prized table birds in France, where the breed originated, and are known as the world's best tasting chicken. (We can attest!) Our breeding stock comes from Devil's Gulch Ranch in Marin County and Greenfire Farm in FL. Egg production: 260 medium-large eggs per year Egg color: cream/white Mature weight: MALE 7.5 LBS. FEMALE 6.5 LBS. They are a great heritage alternative to the Cornish Cross. After testing these birds out last season, we are ALL IN! Our last two hatches had 100% fertility and 93% hatch rate. Chicks currently available.
