Oldenburger

Oldenburger is a breed of domestic fowl, originating from the Oldenburg region of Germany. It is known for its distinctive appearance, with a large, round body, a white comb, and a single comb. The breed is also notable for its docile and friendly temperament, making it a popular choice for backyard flocks and show purposes. Oldenbulgers are dual-purpose birds, suitable for both meat and egg production. They are known for their high egg production, with hens laying an average of 240-260 eggs per year. The breed is also valued for its meat, which is considered lean and flavorful. Oldenbulgers are relatively easy to care for, with a moderate feed requirement and a hardy constitution. They are well-suited to a variety of climates, including temperate and subtropical regions. The breed was developed in the late 19th century through selective breeding of local fowl, and it has since gained recognition and popularity worldwide.
