Our Heritage Chicken Breeds

Self-Blue (Lavender)/Black Split Ameraucana - Blue Eggs

Unlike Easter Eggers that hatcheries often sell as Ameraucana, these are the real deal. We love their fluffy cheeks, pea combs, and sky blue eggs! Our line started with APA Grand Master Exhibitor Paul Smith. To preserve quality, we breed back to Black every few generations. Chicks might be Self-Blue or Black Split.

Opal (Lavender)/Cream Split Legbar - Blue Eggs

Legbars are popular due to their autosexing genes and blue (sometimes minty) eggs. Opals are a gorgeous lavender color but if bred to each other for too long, they can develop feather issues, so we breed back to Cream every few generations. Chicks might be Opal or Cream Split. 

Norske Jærhøns - White/Tinted Eggs

The only truly Norwegian chicken, the Jaerhon is a small autosexing breed that lays large white eggs. They are active foragers and prefer to free range. We obtained ours from someone who imported her line directly from Norway! Chicks need more TLC than other breeds - we are working towards increasing hardiness. 

Silver Westfälische Totleger - White/Tinted Eggs

German Deathlayers are renowned for their ability to lay eggs throughout their whole lives - most breeds slow down and stop after only a few years!  Chicks need more TLC than other breeds - we are working towards increasing hardiness. 

Svarthöna - Off-White/Cream Eggs

Originating in Sweden, the Svart Hona shares the fibromelanistic trait of its famous cousin, the Ayam Cemani - they are almost completely black, inside and out. Also called the Swedish Black Hen, this breed is larger, more cold-hardy, and far more rare than the Ayam Cemani. Their eggs are a bit small compared to our other breeds, but they do lay well.

White American Bresse - Off-White/Cream Eggs

Known as the "Queen of Chickens," the Bresse originated in France. Like Chardonnay, it's not a true Bresse unless raised in the Bresse region, but our American ones did descend from their lines. Because they metabolize food in a unique way, they have delicious marbling and are thought to be the best-tasting chicken in the world!

Dark Brahma - Light Brown Eggs

Along with the Queen of Chickens, we also have the King! These chickens are HUGE, standing about 2 feet tall and weighing over 10 lbs. They are known for being gentle giants and they have cold-hardy pea combs. Ours are the Dark variety, with gorgeous silver penciling on each feather. *photo borrowed from the creator of our line, Live Oak Farm, until ours grow up.

Dominique - Light Brown Eggs

America's oldest chicken breed, Dominiques are very winter hardy due to their frostbite-resistant rose combs. These chickens are incredibly curious and almost as sweet as our Buckeyes! We love their gorgeous barred pattern, which also helps to camouflage them from predators while they're out free ranging our pastures. Some lines are autosexing, but ours so far has not been. 

Buckeye - Light Brown Eggs

Buckeyes are the only APA-recognized breed created by a woman! They quickly stole our hearts - they are sweet and curious, always underfoot, and great bug hunters! They're also cold-hardy with tiny pea combs. Of all our chickens, these are our absolute favorite and we hope to always have this breed in our coop. Our line is alllllmost autosexing, too! 

Blue/Black/Splash Croad Langshan - Light/Medium Brown Eggs SOMETIMES With Pink or Plum Bloom

Langshans are an amazing dual purpose bird. They are large and sweet, and they lay a decent amount of brown eggs that are OCCASIONALLY coated in a gorgeous pink or plum bloom. Our exhibition-quality line includes stock from APA Grand Master Exhibitor Tim Ballenger. Chicks might be black, blue, or splash. Again, there is NO guarantee that they will lay eggs with a bloom, but they sometimes do!

Bielefelder Kennhuhn - Medium Brown Eggs

Created in Germany, the Bielefelder just might be the ultimate dual purpose bird. They are extremely docile, large for the table, lay good-sized eggs, and are autosexing. What more could a homesteader ask for? The only flaw we've found is that they do eat more than other breeds, probably because of their large size. 

Partridge Welsummer - Dark Brown Usually Speckled Eggs

We were very excited to find our Welsummers - they come from an autosexing line and we are working to strengthen that feature. A Dutch breed, they are friendly and great foragers. They lay gorgeous speckled dark brown eggs - almost as dark as our Marans! We breed more for SOP than egg color with this line because we want to keep our beloved autosexing trait. It's so convenient!

Black French Copper Marans - DARK Chocolate Brown Eggs

The preferred egg-layer of Julia Child (and James Bond), our Black French Copper Marans are from the Greenfire Farms A line, which descend from the French National Egg Champion. We breed for both SOP and egg color, but if we have to choose, we favor egg color when picking keepers.
