“I ordered 2 barred rocks in my mix of 15. One of them is the leader of the pack. She’s so sweet and protective of the chickens on the lower end of the pecking order. She’s a good Captain. The other one is not a leader, but very sweet. I wish I knew how to load a picture.”
Autumn, thank you so much for sharing this wonderful review! We love hearing about the different personalities in a flock, and your Barred Plymouth Rock “Captain” sounds absolutely perfect — sweet, confident, and protective of the others. It’s great to hear the second one is just as sweet in her own way.
We’d love to see a photo! You can sent it to us in an email, and we'd be happy to add it for you. Thank you again for choosing us and for taking such great care of your flock!

“We have had quite a few varieties of chickens. There is a lot to love about most all of them. It is fun to see all the various colors of birds running and pecking about. My favorite variety of all is the Barred Plymouth Rock because they are so good in our climate. We have a few nights that freeze in winter (about five to twelve?) and our summers are long and quite warm, with average temps in the mid nineties. These girls tolerate it all. Maybe on the hottest days there will be a few less eggs and same during the shortest of winter days. Overall they produce well and, after their first laying cycle, they lay larger eggs. Great temperament, great bird! The other birds are cool, but they do not lay like these.”
What a fantastic review and great picture! We couldn’t help but smile reading about your lively flock and your clear admiration for the Barred Plymouth Rocks. They really are the dependable workhorses of the chicken world; steady layers, easygoing, and tough enough to handle both the chilly nights and those toasty mid-nineties days without complaint. We love how you put it—the other birds may be cool, but the Rocks are the real overachievers of the bunch. Thanks for sharing your experience and for giving your hens such a great home!
Thank you for your review, Jordan! We're thrilled to hear that your Barred Plymouth Rock is such a cool and docile bird, and it's great to know she's a reliable layer. Light brown eggs every day are a wonderful bonus! Enjoy your feathered friend!

We are thrilled to hear your little Barred Plymouth Rock is so active and friendly! They really do grow quickly, and I'm sure your baby's feathers are wonderful. Although your other two chicks did not have a safe trip, we appreciate the opportunity to reship them. It won't be long until your precious baby has some new friends. We've reached out to you directly with updates regarding your reshipment.
Thank you so much for your review, Rosalina! We’re so happy to hear that your Barred Plymouth Rock girls are so active and thriving! It's amazing to see them grow so quickly and do well in their new home. We're excited to continue supporting you on this chicken-raising journey!
