Silver Laced Barnevelder
Originally from the Dutch town of Barneveld, the Barnevelder was developed in the early 1900's, just before the First World War, to create a layer of brown eggs to meet the preference and demands of the European market.
At Sunset Croft, we have been working for a few years on breeding our own distinctive Silver Laced variety with striking single lacing.
Our Barnevelders are more heavy set than the standard and lay attractive brown, speckled eggs. They are not prone to broodiness, are quiet natured and easy to tame, so make great pets.
As our Silver Laced Barnevelders are non-standard and still in the development stage, we are not releasing any fertile eggs.
