Also known as "Barred
Rock" is a New England breed from the 1800's. A great dual purpose
breed that is an excellent brown egg layer and a hardy meat bird. It is
well adaptable to cold weather. This bird prefers to free range but
can be confined. Plymouth rocks have a happy personality. They come in
many colors,but it is rare to find them in any color other than the
black and white colors. They have a single rose comb making them
different from the Dominique breed that looks just like them (they have a
rose comb instead).
