Wonderful, Thank you!Yeah, she's a typical White Rock. Same breed as the Barred Rock, just a different color/variety.Pics for comparison
You should try a Pekin Duck. I have one who outlays all my chickens with an all pearl white egg. Big egg tooWhat color do they lay, I've been looking for a white egg.

This Thread has convinced me not to dress out my Red Ranger Females. I have 2 I put in a laying flock at 8 weeks of age. I plan on breeding them with Dorkings and Delaware roosters, can someone suggest other roosters I could would cross with meat bird hens? Is there a decent meaty heritage breed that matures faster than a Deleware? is there a better tasting bird than a Dorking?

Have you tried eating your Dorking chickens?

I will eat my dorkings when they are large enough, they are still chicks. At the time I posted that the Dorkings were just Embryos, they are about 2 weeks old now. I do plan on eating their offspring but the ones i have now will be my breeders. If they were sexed correctly I have 2 females and a male. I will be adding a red ranger hen to that pen, and likely I will add other hens who go broody Sense that pen was set up to keep predators out and tiny chicks in.
