And there in a nutshell you have it.
Do you want a bird that is pretty but can't lay enough eggs to pay for its feed?
Do you want a bird that lays really well but can't win a beauty contest?
Or do you just want a red chicken to run around the yard for whatever reasons you might want a chicken for?
I suggest we eliminate the name "Rhode Island Red" altogether and have "Show Reds", "Production Reds", and "Just Reds" and everyone can be happy. This argument has been going for a century now and likely will for another century to come.
We're into repetition now so I'm done with it.
