American Bresse (France)

Naturally speaking, hay is an extremely important component of nest construction. Wattlesburg hens are quite fastidious about it. Every attention must be paid as only the finest quality will do. Mrs. Elizabeth “Beth” Bresse diligently seeks the softest, purest hay.  No expense is spared for the little chicks.  Great anticipation and enthusiasm awaits their arrival. In her shop, the General Store and Livery, Beth also stocks a carefully curated selection of nesting herbs purchased locally from the lavender silkie apothecary. Nesting is quite a long duration. Aromatherapy soothes the length of the sit.
