What kind of barred hen is this?

[HBuehler]

Production black..not barred leghorn but most often confused as one since they look just like one but are a combination of several breeds including leghorn and barred rock.They are fantastic white egg layers but heavier than a leghorn and a bit but not much more hardy than a leghorn.They are sold at many hatcheries but Ideal without a doubt sells more of them than the other hatcheries do.Check out their website under white egg layers
True barred leghorns are very rare in this Country
