Plymouth Rock thread!

It could be a genetic defect. Could he have been feather picked? I have several roosters that get that when they are with a lot of other roosters.

I agree.

Are Plymouth Rock's known to be very broody? My young hen (not even a year old yet) has decided she absolutely wants to be broody, she's very dedicated so I've given her 9 eggs to hatch

Personally I think they do go broody a lot my hen was 8 months old when she went broody and is now a mother of 11 so they go clucky very well but also good mums and broodies is silkies

It seems the exhibition thread for plymouth rocks was recently closed, so I suppose I'll ask here! Does anyone have any recommendation on lines/breeders for white rocks?

I have 3 hatchery stock rocks, a barred, a white, and a partridge. My white is so built her father might as well have been a horse! She's beastly in size and just feels like a powerful bird to hold. I love her and want more like her! She seems much more like what I'd expect from a dual purpose breed in comparison to my other two, who are beautiful but not nearly so meaty.

Are there any perks to having a bantam PR instead of a large bird? I want to know before I place my order
