Plymouth Rock thread!

Wow, there are some really nice Rocks on here. As a future wannabe breeder, I think I shall be making a trip to the States.

Here are mine I purchased from a lady in SK. They are from an exhibition rooster over production hens.

Quality can be measured many ways! If she is a good layer and a sweet bird, then she is a quality bird. A lot of people would prefer her to a show bird that meets the SOP, but does not lay very well and has zero personality! Thanks for sharing, and enjoy your chicken!! .....stan

True, but when you have it all in one bird . . . then you have something unique.

I've posted this before but it's worth a repeat. It's from the mind of one of the great acient Greek thinkers.

This is my BR girl, Periwinkle, not the best quality since she came from a feed store but she's a good layer and a sweet girl.

Have you tried the 'Buy-sell-auction' section on here? There is a thread to post what you are looking for. Do you want chicks, started birds or can you hatch eggs? Where are you located? ...stan

 

[Scooter&Suzie]

Craigs list sometimes works... Or you can order from an online hatchery. It really just depends what area you are from. Do you want to get pullets, chicks, or hatching eggs?

Lovely birds, Flicker Chick!

Come to Maine...I can direct you to a breeder of some mighty fine LF & bantam Barred Plymouth Rocks! (it's not me

- yet - try back in twenty years for that

)!

Here's a photo of my gangly bantam cockerel, all tail & legs, at 17 weeks:
