This is a great chance to try out Bresse chickens, grow a few test batches, fill your freezer with amazing meat, and see if Bresse are right for you!
These are the same high-quality White American Bresse chicks, just offered at a discount. They're perfect for meat runs, backyard chicken tractors, hoop coops, or even growing birds for your family, local restaurants, or farmers markets.
These chicks come from our weekly hatch culls. We look at things like chick fuzz and leg color and only keep the best for breeding. The rest are still purebred Bresse, just not part of our breeder program — and that means you get them at a lower price.
Thanks to our high-protein, high-fat feed, some of these chicks may show extra coloring, but they’re still 100% White American Bresse and full of flavor and potential.
10 Chick minimum reflected @ $9.5 - 12 per chick depending on the date chosen.
ALL SALES FINAL. Chicks will ship on your selected ship date below.
What you’re getting
-
Names: American Bresse, White American Bresse, and Gauloise are the same U.S. type—descended from France’s Bresse Gauloise (the protected French name can’t be used here).
-
Source: These birds come from North Star Farms, which has kept a closed, meat-focused line for 8+ years, originally descended from the first Greenfire Farms import (later imports were mixed by others).
-
Selection goals: hens that lay 5–6 eggs/week and table birds that finish around a 5 lb carcass at 22–23 weeks after a 2-week milk-soaked feed finish. Typical growth target: cockerels ~5 lb live at 16 weeks.
-
Type & look: bred toward the commercial/meat type—stockier, wide-bodied, heavier legs/thighs—while preserving classic Bresse eating quality (not a Cornish-cross replacement).
-
Flavor & texture: different from Cornish/CX/Rangers—tender, lightly marbled when finished, lighter bones, firm but fine texture. Excellent eating at 8–12 weeks; by ~22 weeks cocks are full, with buttery fat and crisp skin—great roasted, grilled, air-fried, canned, or in soups.
-
Eggs: mostly cream to light peach, often large to jumbo, sometimes speckled.
-
Color groupings: same genetics sorted at hatch by down color—Abigail (very white fuzz, dark blue adult legs), Gem (warmer/yellow cast, lighter legs), Daniel (legacy red-dusting/leg throwbacks; typically sold for meat or non-color homes).
-
Label: Offered under North Star Gauloise®, their trademark, to distinguish these birds from the broad “white American Bresse” label used elsewhere.
