We are so excited to be able to offer the beautiful double-laced or "partridge" Barnvelder in bantam size. These lovely, docile birds are good layers of bantam-sized dark brown eggs. These are among the rarest eggs we offer: In fact, it is nearly impossible to find bantam Barnvelders in the US, so these eggs are highly desirable and will sell out fast!

Barnevelders were developed in the town of Barneveld in Holland; the intention was to create a hardy, good layer of deep brown eggs.  Success was met with the Barnvelder! Sweet, quiet, healthy and content birds, they are a joy to own and raise since they are winter hardy and stand confinement well.  They do go broody: when that happens, they make gentle, loving mothers.  These adorable little double-laced birds are simply wonderful and incredibly cute!
