One more question...... are barred rocks quiet?

I have Barred rocks for log time, they are good breed, but they can get pretty noisy when they want to lay.

a single hen can get very depressed. if you get two and loose one (disease (genetic or acquired)), you will find yourself in a madrush to find a new hen, quarantine her, and begin the process of introduction.... imho it is best to start with at least three hens. when ine dies, you have time to vet potential adoptees, quarentee and indroduce, meanwhile, greiving as your other 2+ hens may be, they wont fall into a depressive stupor while you find the best new match for your mini flock. goodluck!
