Healthy and free-range chickens, up to 1 year old
 
Summary:
The American Bresse is a dual-purpose heritage breed that excels as a layer, producing approximately 200–250 medium to large cream-colored eggs per year. Known for its hardiness and adaptability, the American Bresse begins laying around 5 to 6 months of age and continues steadily with good feed and care. These birds are active foragers and thrive in pasture-based systems, making them ideal for sustainable farms and homesteads. With their striking white feathers, red combs, and blue legs, American Bresse hens are not only productive layers but also visually distinctive and easy to manage in a backyard or free-range environment.
