Lakenvelder İnformations;
These Dutch chicken birds are thought to be named after the town of Lakenvelt, but they were developed in Germany. They’re very rarely kept in the U.S., but those who do keep them do so as pets, for eggs and show only.
Various theories about Lakenfeld’s origin are circulating: According to one, it originated in Lakervelt in the early 18th century. After the other, it flourished simultaneously in Westphalia and the Netherlands and owes its name to similarly drawn farm animals such as Lakenfeld cattle. But they definitely belong to the older spawning breeds.
