This is a 'barred plymouth rock' from Hoover's. @MarkJr also has some with .....interesting.......coloring, but I can't seem to find the thread or apparently the member anymore? @Overo Mare any idea what happened with him?

The rest are labled as TSC BRs though if I remeber This thread the OP didn’t actually say where the got them and didn’t say they were labeled as BRs either. This bird also looks more meaty so I believe this bird in particular is a Kosher King. Though the rest are really weird and Hoover’s has been pumping them out. Mark Jrs in particular have more white lacing on the front. The rest of the TSC “Barred Rocks” are supposedly small birds but good layers, where as this bird looks big and meaty. Kosher Kings also aren’t very good layers. I have a whole thread trying to figure it out.

I found out about them through Cackle, but quite a few sell them actually. Though they are meat birds. Hoover’s has been pumping out “Barred Plymouth Rocks” that look just like them but they are smaller and for egg production.
 
I've also recalled, TSC gets from 3 hatcheries, including hoover's. You'd have to see if they still had the shipping boxes to verify which of the 3, any of the birds came from. Hoover's doesn't have the kosher king, at least when I just now searched for it on their web site a variety of ways.

They are from Hoovers. Hoover’s has two lines of Barred Rocks. One normal hatchery quality and one of the weird ones. @TheAlrightyGina got in contact with them. If you read my thread there are links to where it was staTed.
