Quote: Silver Penciled Plymouth Rocks - prolific laying & amazing penciling. Quality stock! Dick Horstman/Tommy Stanlye/Charles McInosh/Superior Farms Lines! $7 Coming Soon
The Silver Pencilled Rocks are not bad. However, when you have two or three different strains crossed in you wonder what the heck you will end up with. My guess is they will be like hatchery chickens and the traits will be all over the place. They are just trying to make a few bucks and supply some of many who want chickens for pleasure some better than averavearge triats than the feed stores offer. They are at least showing thier birds at a show.
Thats about all I saw. Still would rather get stock from a guy who at least has breed his birds for three to five years. I think in the long run you would be better off.
Going to look at some real good large fowl today at Three pm at Matt 1616 farm. Going to try to take some pictures of the new improved southern Mohawks. He has one male and two pullets I got to check out. Will take pictures of the orange and buff chickens as well.
If you have a source for some diapers I need to order some for this winter for my silkie line. bob
