Welsummers
Welsummer chickens were created in the little Dutch village of Welsum, They are highly sought after as a production bird, laying a good amount (275 per year) of beautiful dark red/brown eggs. These beautiful birds are also well known from their role in American advertising. The Kellogg's Corn Flake Rooster, "Cornelius" is a Welsummer. Chicks are strong and are easily sexed as females have much darker head and back markings than males. They are friendly, easily handled birds which love to free range and forage for food but can also be kept in runs quite happily.

a really beautiful bird that lays lovely dark brown eggs. Not as many eggs as other birds I have or have had. Maybe 4 or 5 a week compared to daily from my white star or blackrock. Have found happy chicks on the whole to be excellent and supply quality birds.
