Our Mixed Lot includes White, Blue, and Black American Bresse, sold by the dozen (12 chicks per unit).
Each week we hatch on our farm in Winfield, Alabama, and make a limited number of dozens available for shipment.
Because Bresse are one of the most celebrated chicken breeds in the world, these hatches often sell out quickly.

🐓 Why Choose Day Old Bresse Chicks?
American Bresse are more than just chickens – they are a culinary and cultural icon. In France, the original Bresse
is protected by AOC status, similar to Champagne or Roquefort cheese. Known for its unmatched flavor, tender texture,
and beautiful table presentation, the Bresse has been called the “Queen of Chickens.”
At Southern Rise Farms, we are proud to raise NPIP Certified American Bresse chicks that thrive on pasture,
grow quickly, and produce some of the finest poultry you will ever taste. Our farm offers some of the best Day Old Bresse chicks for sale in the U.S., bred for both table quality and strong flock genetics.
These chicks are also highly adaptable for homesteaders, backyard flocks, and small farms. Their calm temperament,
strong foraging instincts, and heritage genetics make them an excellent choice for both meat and breeding programs.
- Renowned worldwide for exceptional flavor and culinary quality
- Fast growth rate with balanced meat-to-bone ratio
- Thrives in free-range and pasture-based systems
- Strong genetics from NPIP Certified breeding stock
📅 Hatch Dates & Availability
Our Day Old Bresse chicks for sale are offered by the dozen only. Each hatch date is listed in the dropdown menu above.
When you select a date, you will see if availability is open, limited, or sold out.
We maintain a weekly capacity of approximately 72 chicks (6 dozen). Although our incubators hatch more,
we hold back a small buffer to account for fertility differences, ensure strong live arrival rates, and to
support our own breeding program.
Once a hatch date sells out, you may reserve the next available week. Many customers reserve multiple weeks
in advance to ensure a steady flow of new chicks into their flock. If you are ordering in higher quantities
(24, 36, or more chicks), simply select your hatch date and increase the quantity to 2, 3, or more dozens in the cart.
🎨 Color Mix & Preferences
Our Mixed Lot includes White, Blue, and Black Bresse. When you purchase our Day Old Bresse chicks for sale,
you may receive a combination of colors depending on hatch outcomes. Customers may note a color preference at checkout,
and we will do our best to accommodate those requests in the order they are received. However, please understand
that final color distribution is not guaranteed. If you want only one specific color, we recommend placing
a backorder through our individual color product listings. Those backorders are filled only after Mixed Lot orders for a hatch are completed.

🐥 Brooding & Care Tips
To get the most from your Day Old Bresse chicks for sale, it is important to have a warm brooder ready.
Chicks require a steady heat source (95°F for the first week, reduced by 5°F each week after), clean bedding,
and access to fresh water and starter feed. We recommend using a quality chick starter with 20–22% protein
for the first several weeks to support strong growth. Provide unlimited access to clean water, and check
often in the first 48 hours as chicks adjust to their new environment.
Bresse chicks are excellent foragers and will transition well to pasture once fully feathered.
Early exposure to grass and soil (supervised) can improve their hardiness and natural instincts.
By following basic brooding practices, you’ll set your chicks up for success and enjoy the full potential of this exceptional breed.
