Why we raise Breese Chickens!
White Bresse Chickens are the worlds most delicious chicken.
Bresse are very beautiful birds with white feathers, red combs and blue steel legs. Bresse will lay 250 eggs per year and they have a great disposition. Bresse are heat and cold tolerant and are very easy to care for, making them a great dual purpose bird. Bresse have been around for over 500 years and originated in France. Bresse hens will weigh around 5.5 lbs., Roosters are typically around 7 pounds. Bresse will start laying around 4.5 months of a cream to light tan egg.
The Bresse has a genetic lineage that allows them to metabolize their food in a unique way which helps to create a different flavor as well as meat, and fat, growth pattern. Additionally, the meat-to-bone ratio is vastly different from traditional meat chickens because their bones are quite thin and dainty.
Please book and pre-pay for your orders as soon as possible because we are a smaller farm and can only hatch so many and will only hatch as per order.
