x2Yup both newhampshires.
Production Reds are a generic red bird that is primarily for egg production. There is no difference between a hatchery sourced Rhode Island Red, a Production Red, and a New Hampshire other than the shade of red the bird is. The darker reds get labeled Rhode Island Reds, the mid-tone birds get labeled Production Red, and the lightest ones get labeled New Hampshire. They are so far removed from resembling a heritage Rhode Island Red or New Hampshire that they all basically fall into the Production Red category. If you only want egg layers, then they are a great choice. If you want the temperament and looks of the heritage breed type birds, you're going to end up disappointed.School me on Production Reds please. From what I've heard it's a cross between a RIR and a NH. Also, I've heard a NH came from a line of RIRs. Is this correct?
