Product Description
A rare breed developed in Germany by Oskar Vorwerk as an attractive dual-purpose chicken. The Vorwerk has a single comb and comes in one color pattern – golden buff with a black neck and tail; essentially, a golden Lakenvelder.
Bantam versions have been developed independently in the United States and in Europe. The only Vorwerks available in North America are bantams developed in the United States.
Vorwerks are alert, active, capable fliers, and known for good feed-conversion efficiency. The hens are relatively poor layers of eggs with tinted shells and may go broody.
