Hi Fizzy,
There WAS a plymouth rock thread going on a couple weeks ago, but it kinda got lost in the shuffle.   Here it is if you`re interested.

Hatching eggs are no longer avaiable from any breeds until further notice due to predator problems and birds being too old .

I have two barred rocks I am watching right now.  They have been staring down the crows this past afternoon.  The crows have decided to eat the oatmeal that my hens did not eat.  lol

I hatched out 9 salmon faverolles between 3/1-4.  80% fertility, 75% hatch rate on my first go at it.  Thanks Cloverleaf for the eggs and to the entire flock here on BYC for the support during the hatch.  I am off to clean pasty butts...

Well, I do not have barreds but partridge color.  Love them.  They are free rangeing even in this cold weather.  Past 2 nights its been in the 20's.  My blog on mine tells more on them.  I am only working with this color and breed right now.  Depending on how this next year goes I might be expanding into the Buff Rocks.

I have 5 buff rocks in my flock now.

In the past I've had white and barred too.

Of my five assorted girls, my little barred rock Dixie is my pick "of the litter!"  She's quite outgoing, a snuggler, and she has personality galore!!

Caretaker of a lovely mixed flock including: australorp, plymouth rocks, wyandotte, d'uccles, silkies, EEs, andalusian, and a few seramas, plus a golden retriever, great dane, and three cats.  I always swore that I wouldn't succumb to chicken math.  I lied.
