Do you prefer barred rocks or dominiques?

[noregerts]

Can't speak for dominiques, but my barred rock is the most friendly of my three breeds.

Same here, super friendly.

I've had both and the Dominique's tend to be a bit nervous not matter how young they are when you get them. My barred rock Ophelia is the bomb in my opinion. She loves to talk and follows me around. She gets along with everyone even the ducklings, I've yet to have an issue with her.

And she has laid an egg every single day for 2 months now, which is great for a first time layer.

Why not both?

Why not both?

Some people have limits and are more resistant to chicken math than others.

I love my doms, they're sassy!
Never a bit of trouble either besides being nosy.

GC, it looks like your girls are enjoying their selves in that picture...

Oh yeah, they enjoy their Freerange time, an hour before sunset daily, weather permitting. GC
