The detail
Plymouth Rocks were developed in Massachusetts in the 1800s and are a dual-purpose chicken known for the Barred Rock pattern. They are calm, hardy and good layers, which made them one of the most common farm chickens in America.
What to weigh
Plymouth Rocks need space and do best free ranging. Roosters can be protective.
