Hi, not sure if this is the right forum to post this in but I was wondering what is the breed called when you cross a pure Black Star hen with a pure rhode island rooster??

It's not a breed. The black star is not a breed, but is a cross between a barred hen and a not-barred rooster. The black star could be a cross between two different breeds or could be based on commercial egg laying hybrids.

You can call that cross a mutt, or maybe a barnyard mix. You can make up your own name because there are no specific names for that cross.

Your should get a dual purpose chicken. The females should lay pretty well. The males might be pretty good for meat or might be a bit small, depending n what actually went into the black star.
