plymouth rock

We have been raising chickens for several months now and we're kind of new at this. We have 2 dark brown Bantam hens and 3 Silkies even smaller than the Bantams. We had 2 plymouth rock chickens that were much bigger than the rest and they were mean to the other chickens, pecking at them and...

I'm pretty confused and frustrated at this point. I don't know if I'm right or wrong on the matter, which is why I ask. My question is about the Plymouth Rock breed. I keep hearing people say that Barred Rocks, White Rocks, and Sapphire Gems are all different breeds. But, they are all just...

Hello everyone. I want to create black sex-linked crosses (extended black - group 1) using Dominant Barred D 959 hens. Here's the link showing the hens: http://dominant-cz.cz/produkt/dominant-zihany-d-959-2/?lang=en I want to use black roosters mainly (minorca, araucana, jersey giant...

Hi there! Our Plymouth Rock hen produced a few chicks, but only one survived. So now, it's a few months later, and this little guy is starting to get a sickle on his tail feathers! I am curious as to how his temperment will be be, as dad is a Red Range Rooster. This chick also will not go...

bought 5 and hatched 3 of these, just wanted opinions on their sex.

Hi guys! New member. I have 4 6-week-old chicks, my first ever. Two are Plymouths, one buff Orpington, and an Australorp. My father owns chickens down in Tennessee so he's a great resource for some things, but it's nice to have a wider community, especially for cold-weather concerns. As I write...

PLEASE HELP! Okay. So I went out to check on my chickens and check eggs this morning, and brought food scraps to give them. At first, I didn't notice anything. But when I poured food out, and Tiny (our chicken that is gone now) didn't come running to get some, I knew something was wrong. I...

I am really confused. So you have your Plymouth Barred rock but then there are White Rocks and Buff rocks. When you refer to a Plymouth Rock chickens most people Assume Barred rocks(which i have). How did we get the different types? I guess what im trying to say is i dont understand that if...

Hello: I have 8 (used to be 10) lovely Plymouth Rocks. I have noticed over the last week or so that most of them are a good size, big, fluffy, etc. There is one chicken that used to be big as them, but she is smaller now. She eats well, but I'm thinking she was also my broody. Wondering if...

Our silkie has just hatched 10chicks..we have 2 roosters a Plymouth Rock and silkie although we never saw the Plymouth mate with her. A few of the chicks have hairy feet and are grey then the majority are yellow with clean feet. Can silkies be born without fluffy feet? Thanks!

Hi, so we have 2 white hens, (one is my avatar, actually) and I've been searching the web to see if they were Plymouth rocks or RIWs, I'm leaning towards rocks since RIWs are apparently pretty rare. I've also read some people say that they can only have a rose comb, or either one, so I figured I...
