Boschveld is a cross breed of roadrunners, namely, Venda(SA), Ovambo (Namibia) AND Matebele (Zimbabwe). It was developed by a Zimbabwean born South African farmer, Michael Bosch.

In 2005, Mike was a finalist in the National Farmer of the Year Award.

Boschveld eggs are fully accredited with BRC (British Retail Consortium – the standard European Retailers).

Some advantages of the boschveld layers are:-

·         Versatile: Can be raised as layer or roadrunner

·         Lays eggs for 2.5years

·         Extra large eggs as the birds grow older.

·         Can breed on your own; no need to keep buying chicks.

·         Regional origin and so resistant to some bacterial infections. This limits the use of antibiotics.
