“Oh my god she is such a lover! Very healthy and beautiful chick too. She was the smallest when she first came but has caught up to everyone over the first week. Loves mama the most out of all the chicks I ordered. She loves belly rubs and napping in my hand.”
Thank you for this great review and photo! Bielefelder hens are usually very sweet and quite large as adult hens. They lay nice, big eggs and I hope you get lots of those along with this sweet personality!
Bielefelder chicks are sweet and quiet girls and grow up to be BIG but gentle. Great egg layers and sweet personalities, I think she's a great addition to a flock. Thank you for your review!
“Probably the prettiest baby chick I’ve seen! She arrived healthy and continues to grow and show her little personality. Everyday she morphs from a little chipmunk chick into having new beautiful colors. Her little face is precious and I’m excited to see her grow into a hen!”
These little ones are always just so precious! Thank you so much for letting us share in the experience of adding her to your flock! Please let us know if we can ever be of any assistance with questions or your flock care needs. We are happy to help!
We are so very thankful for your kind words and review of My Pet Chicken and your little ones! As flock keepers ourselves, we do our best to make sure we are there for our customers with everything they may need or want for their flocks! We appreciate you letting us be a part of your adventure!
We are so happy to hear that Helga is doing so well and has been a great addition to your flock! The Bielefelder hens are quite docile, so they make excellent pets in addition to just being gorgeous! Thank you for letting us know how she is doing and always feel free to reach out to us if you have any questions. We are here to help!
“Our girl is now 4 months old and without question she is the sweetest of our flock - and is also the largest! She’ll always come right up to me for treats and is so gentle, calm, and happy to be held. She also has such gorgeous coloring - everything from brown, to red, to black, and grey… I absolutely adore her and will always have Bielefelders in our flock! Don’t miss out on this breed - they are special :)”
Thank you so much for the awesome comments! We are so happy to hear this sweet girl has been such a wonderful addition to your flock! I may just need to add one to my flock now.
Rosie sounds like an amazing hen! She has inherited those wonderful genes that make this breed one of the best to have in a backyard flock! I bet Pierre and Rosie make the cutest pair of friends! Thank you for sharing with us how happy she has made you and your backyard flock!
“I have a rooster (Colonel) and a hen (Claudia) (both 1 year old) and they have surpassed my expectations, based on the info I found online. My Colonel is SO GORGEOUS and an absolute gentleman (he has 23 hens, including bantams). He courts them nicely, is a second pair of eyes with my dog, watching the skies, and ALL the girls go in the coop at night now! He has brought order to chaos and has even adopted my ducklings, talking to them and making frequent “checks” on them! I was always scared of a rooster, but he is a delight to watch strut and gives me peace of mind because he is always watching.
Claudia is a DOLL! She is so curious and has taken to my ducklings, too, and can usually be found with them and the older ducks ha! Yes, this is a very large breed, but they are beautiful, Claudia lays big, pink-bloomed eggs, docile, and I won’t ever go without one in my flock! Please consider this breed-you won’t regret it! (Both were adopted and raised by my black Silkie, so I think that helped Colonel adjust and understand how to treat other chickens.)”
What a fantastic review of this breed, thank you, Emily! A good rooster is a blessing. If you get the opportunity, we'd love a picture of Colonel and Claudia. Thank you so much and know My Pet Chicken is here if you need anything.
