These birds are not plymouth rocks.
Two years ago the overseas company said they were a cross of a "barred Plymouth and an old Analusian type"
Last year they changed it to a "barred Plymouth type and a blue Plymouth tyoe"
They also use a splash not a blue to produce the 100% blue offspring.
The hatcheries should stop using the plymouth name since there is already a blue variety Plymouth rock. The real blue PR iis fairly rare in the states and this labeling is gonna cause chaos for that variety.
