In the last few weeks we've been blessed to find over 90 pullets that are just about ready to lay. These are some that Grampa Tom brought home just recently. The ones I like the best are the White Rocks. We've had White Leghorns. I wasn't terribly impressed with the looks of those, but these birds are impressive! I helped Grampa Tom unload them and they really live up to their name! They are massive, solid and utterly beautiful birds!
White Rocks are one of the variations of the Plymouth Rock breed which was developed in the North East in the early 19th century. It was a very popular bird because of it's size, egg production, good disposition and fast growth rate. We've not had them for very long, but I can see why they were so popular!
God Bless You All!
