The Barnevelder originally come from the District of
Barneveld, in Holland.

They are a very desired breed by many due to their
ability to lay a very dark brown egg in good numbers.
They are an all-purpose utility breed making them a
wonderful  addition to any farm wishing to work with a
rare breed.

The  Double Laced birds of my flock that I have  
pictured here, are a beautiful  example of the color
patterns that you should expect in your flock.
Barnevelders are a very docile breed,which makes them
very easy to work with. Each morning as I tend to my
flock, the hens gather around my feet like pets. The
roosters have been known to accept a brood of chicks
and even settle down on them in the evening. They are
an excellent foraging breed that knows how to take care
of themselves running free range as my birds do.

We know that you will enjoy this breed on your farm, we
certainly do!!!
