Bielefelder Kennhuhn or Bielefelder is a German breed of domestic chicken. It was created in the 1970 by Gerd Roth using Amrocks (Barred Rocks), Malines, New Hampshire and Rhode Island Red.
Bielefelder is dual purpose breed, hens producing about 230 eggs a year. Male and female chicks look different directly after hatching, which makes chick sexing extremely easy. It is a so-called auto-sexing breed.
