Here are three of my Barred Rocks. Well, maybe. I got some eggs from a friend and I haven't seen his flock, so I'm going off what he told me he has. He says he has BR hens, Americuana hens, a RIR rooster, and a Buff Orpington rooster. Is it Possible to get chickens that look like only BR...
Alright folks, since the last one was so much fun, let’s see what y’all say about this fella. Have an idea of the breed, possibly. I got a bunch of eggs from a buddy of mine and a few from my neighbor as well. For the life of me, I can’t remember which egg this one hatched from. By buddy has...
