Bielefelder started pullets from verified U.S. breeders. Request a quote and we'll match you with NPIP-certified breeders in your state within 1 business day.
The Bielefelder is a large German auto-sexing breed: brown eggs, sex-linked at hatch, calm temperament, exceptional cold hardiness. A 'fewer breeds, more output' choice for backyard keepers.
Started pullets are 6 to 20 weeks old, fully feathered, sexed, and weeks away from laying. They are the fastest path to eggs and the safest option for new keepers: no brooding required, no risk of unwanted cockerels, and most flock health questions are already answered. Pickup is common at this age class because birds travel less well than chicks.
FastPoultry is a broker, not a hatchery. We don't take payment for birds. Every breeder in our network is verified as NPIP certified, which means their flock has tested clean for Pullorum-Typhoid and qualifies for interstate shipment. After we send you matched breeders, you arrange payment, pickup, or shipping directly with the breeder of your choice.

Bielefelder started pullets typically begin laying between 18 and 24 weeks of age, depending on breed, season, day length, and feed. Pullets sold at 16 to 18 weeks are usually within a few weeks of point of lay.
Most started pullet transactions are pickup, because adult-sized birds travel less easily than chicks. Some breeders ship adult-sized birds via USPS or air freight - matched breeders will confirm options in their reply.
