Red Barred Rocks

Is there still a breed like Red Barred Rocks?

First time hearing about them, & I love the Plymouth Rocks.

What are Black Sexlinks?
Aren't those Rhode Island Red x Barred Rocks?

I've heard of Rhodebars. Think that maybe what your picture is of.

I wonder if it's just a name change by different hatcheries.
Like a Midnight Majesty Marans thru Meyers Hatchery but it's a Rustic Rambler at Freedom Ranger Hatcheries.

Interesting that there are some of that breed. But maybe not in the US?
