Plymouth Rock

Love them, calm, friendly, excellent layers, but mine have been rough on the younger ones, but only for a short time. I would have more if I had room!

I have two hens and a roo. Really, this is my favourite breed hands down! They are so easy to love. They are wonderful layers and my rooster is very good with his girls. He is not aggressive, but he sure is loud! :gig

The best egg layer, cheap, easy to find backyard chicken. With all the work this breed has had over the years you just can't beat them for eggs. Nice, friendly birds who forage well as free rangers. Nothing flashy or unique about this bird, but there is a reason everyone owns them....they do what you need them to. Highly recommended especially for those new to raising chickens.

I have a White Rock and a Partridge rock. They seem to be good birds, but have not started laying yet so time will tell. Of all my chickens these 2 are the most flighty and will not come close to any human if they can avoid it. Maybe that wil change after they start laying.

We have Barred Rocks we have raised from chicks and they are extremely tame. They follow the kids and I around the yard and will even climb up on our laps when we sit down. Would definitely buy this breed again.

Our Barred Rock, Julliet, is one of our nicest chickens. She likes nothing better then to perch on an unsuspecting arm. Barred Rocks are definitely a breed i would go back to.

When we bought them from a lady they were just as mean as they could be to our chickens and even with time they still picked on them.I thought maybe they were just mean so i hatched out chicks thinking maybe they would be nicer....Wrong..
