I know, I know! Chickens are not an essential part of building a fine "log-ma-hal," but for those of us who want to live a little out of town and perhaps save some money. It might be worth a thought. I came into the poultry world unblemished by previous experience. There seems to be a breed fairly new to the US that has come to my attention. The French call them Bresse. The seems to be fairly hardy and produce a large egg. They seem to be fairly calm and easy to manage. If the are fed and finished off the French way the meat is some of the most delicious on earth. A butcher shop in France can sell these birds for $150.00 each Christmas week. You can get the eggs on ebay..................If you want more info, see Greenfire Farms description.
