    It seems that you would need to finish other breeds the same way and then perform a taste test to compare? Just a thought. I am just now growing American Bresse, excited to test and explore the possibilities.

    We finish ours contained as well. But we feed them milk soaked feed for 3-4 weeks total. They gain 1.5-2lbs of fat throughout the meat as well as in the body cavity. So never do this sort of feeding for your breeding stock, only the ones you intend to indulge upon :)

      I agree, I just put 40 into the finishing room and I picked out my breeding roosters before that.

      The French also caponize/castrate Bresse. I’ve heard good things about other breeds made into capons and also about milk-fed birds so the combination should be amazing!

    The Bresse has the marbling gene.. but you have to finish properly to get the marbling to develop. You have to fatten them up... just like finishing hogs or any other animal.. You can't finish other chickens like you do the Bresse and get the same marbling... it is the gene... fatten the gene... fatten the gene... them you get the Wagu of the chicken world... the flavor is in the fat.

    I ferment my CC's feed in water ( & milk when available). Last batch I did I offered dry grower feed and fermented corn as they cleaned their dishes and they turned out great. Used less feed and taste amazing. Home raised is always better IMO but these have a noticeable difference in taste vs regular dry feed fed or even regular fermented feed. All my meat birds are in chicken tractors also. I used cornmeal and whole corn for the fermented feed and ferment in 5 gallon buckets. I have Freedom Rangers finishing in 4 weeks that will be done the same way and have American Bresse hatching eggs ordered for September. In winter months I'm hoping to add fodder to their diet as well.

      Sorry I missed this comment. They turned out great, more moist then a Cornish cross and a lot of flavor but not gamey at all. They definitely have more bone and less meat then a Cornish cross. Now I am getting as many people as I can to try them as I work more on the breeding side of things.

      I agree, a lot of people do not get food with good flavor so when they do they either love it or hate it. I love our grass fed beef because it is so much richer and even a Cornish cross raised on good food and grass has way more flavor than the store chickens. Thanks for watching

      Nothing silly about it. We had a friend give us some wild ram meat and it was awful because it was gamey. If you ever experience wild meat like that, you'd know exactly why people use that word.

    If they would taste the same as any other dual purpose chicken, couldn't you feed out others the same way for the same exquisite taste?

    • @The.Recreational.Homestead
      @The.Recreational.Homestead  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      That is definitely something I should try for the fun of it. They say Bresse are the only chicken that can have marbling so if you don’t finish them they would marble and if you finished a different breed out like this but they didn’t marble would they taste any better? This is something I should try. Thanks for the question

      It works but not at the same degree, i Did it with 2 naked neck roosters back in august and turned out much better than the ones i didn't, though if you have eaten an AOP bresse chicken there is no way you can confuse that with anything else

    😂 I mean any heritage breeds of chicken will taste better and flavorful than cornish broilers. Bresse are a bit overrated imho. 🤷‍♂️ but I will say bresse will put on a better weight for butcher than other heritage breeds.
