My hens and rooster of this breed are not only loving and cuddly but also gorgeous! I simply adore Rhode Island Reds and I think I will always have one among my other breeds in the future. The only downside being how huge my rooster is, he is perfectly well behaved so no issues he just takes up a lot of space and may not be the best for those who don't have a whole ton of room for big birds like he is.
