My Bantam Barred Rocky Flock has grown

[L&Schickens]

I got 4 more bantam BR's from a friend of mine. A roo and 3 hens. They are of laying age and since he has lights, they should still be laying at least for a while. I don't have lights so I am sure they will quit as soon as they figure out it gets dark here.

Also, I am taking 3 of them to the show in December. The roo and 2 hens.
So I now have 7 bantam Barred Rocks in my poultry collection. So cool!!

And Loren loves them too.

They are gorgeous! I see that crisp, even barring much more in bantams than large fowl. They are lovely birds.

I think I might keep these guys and sell the RIRs I have.

My RIR roo has problems breeding his hens.

I have a trio of these and love them

Yours are some nice looking chickens good luck with them

OK Now I want bantam BR's. Love my big ones, the small ones would be so much fun!

Does that mean that you'll soon run out of room for your Jaerhons?!? After seeing all your pics, I've decided that I definitely want to go with that breed...so, because I am so big hearted, and such a giver, I will willingly provide a new home for all your Jaerhons. (Can you sense the need for hip boots at this point?!?! It's getting deep!)

Other than the black in the males tail...nice Barred Rock cockerel! gorgeous things!!!

I'll be getting some standards pretty soon...with that kind of barring!

I will have to look at his tail up close. That black might be a shadow maybe. Or black in a feather. Easily remedied. Just pull it out!!
