About this breed
The Bielefelder chicken is a German rare breed of domestic chickens. It was created by Gerd Roth in the 1970's using Amrocks (Barred Rocks), Malines, Rhode Island Reds and New Hampshire. It has gained the term the "Uber Chicken" due to it's many desirable characteristics such as being a dual purpose bird and a auto-sexing breed. Male and female chicks look different directly after hatching which makes sexing the birds extremely easy.
A very prolific layer on large to extra large eggs. They have a very docile disposition and easy to tame and kid-friendly.
