We are focused on the breeds that we raise. The Bresse chicks come from breeding stock that has been selected from large preservation flocks of birds. Our goal is to provide our customers with chicks that are from the best. We maintain a large gene pool to slow inbreeding depression. Here is an opportunity to raise a pastoral rare breed of chicken that will thrive and be an asset to your farm and pocketbook.
The Bresse has been established through 500 years of French tradition. Our birds are originally imported from Europe and from Canadian lines. Our farm imported the Canadian lines from British Columbia. Our recent import from Canada adds hardiness and vigor to the breed. The birds you will receive are a combination of American, European, and Canadian lines. We find Bresse to be a wonderful choice for homesteaders seeking the value of food independence. Truly a dual purpose chicken.
