Plymouth Rock thread!

Well, it's only been an hour since your last post. People don't post constantly, ya know.

I guess I can post a picture of my one Barred Rock chick. Today at 9 days old.

Hi Y'all,

I raise, breed and show WBS Ameraucanas, Barnevelders, Buckeyes, and Welsummers. This year I have decided to replace all the hatchery/feedstore birds I keep for eggs while my others are in the breeding pens with SQ stock. Here are the breeds that I’m looking for now and plan to get:

1) Barred Rocks (BR)
2) Black Jersey Giants (BJG)
3) Buff Brahmas (BB)
4) Black, Blue, and/or Buff Orpingtons (BO)
5) Golden-Laced Wyandottes (GLW)
6) Silver-Laced Wyandottes (SLW)
7) Blue-Laced Red Wyandottes (BLRW)
8) New Hampshire Reds (NHR)
9) Rhode Island Reds (RIR)

I think that’s it but with chickens I just never know. If I see something that catches my eye, I may just have to get some. For example, I recently heard that someone in the USA has some BLR Barnevelders. If I see them, I’ll probably have to get some!

Anyways, I would appreciate hearing from any of you BR breeders who would sell me some hatching eggs from good SQ stock. I might also be interested in Partridge or Buff Rocks as well. Please send me an email as I likely won't see a reply here.

God Bless,

ok it's getting close, only one more day till I take the SPPR girls to the stockton show! I have to say they don't much like the cage...not sure if I'll ever put them through this again, Ziggy misses them too, he's taken up with some of those floosy coronation sussex next door....

Rant moment here...

Amelia is a White Rock, 10 months old. Every day her eggs are JUMBO, huge eggs. Every day! But I have not gotten one double yolker! Just all these huge yolks! It is SO annoying. Why, why, WHY??!?!?!?? Why am I not double yolker worthy??

Sorry...
