Barred Rock
The Barred Rock is one of the all time traditional favorites among back yard farmers. Developed in New England in the early 1800's by crossing Dominiques and Black Javas, it has spread to every part of the U.S. and is an ideal American chicken. Prolific layers of brown eggs, the hens are not discouraged by cold weather. These chickens are often called Plymouth Rocks, but this title correctly belongs to the entire breed, not just the Barred variety. You can't beat them for steady, reliable chickens which are very active, inquisitive, and do well in any back yard flock. Their plumage is beautifully striped black and white. They are very eye catching!

Chick Sexing Guarantee
On standard breeds this procedure is about 90% accurate. This a means that you have a 10% chance of getting a rooster. If you ABSOLUTELY can not own a rooster, please purchase breeds which are sexed much more accurately. Sex links and auto-sexing breeds are sexed with a 99% success rate. This means your chance of getting a rooster is extremely rare. While we do our very best to sell properly sexed birds, please understand the difficulty in this task. We can not take back roosters that you can not keep.
Health Guarantee
We hand raise all of our chicks in the best conditions possible. They are fed quality feed from the very first day and provided fresh clean water. Their room temperature is precisely monitored and they are socialized as much as possible. Please understand that when purchasing baby chicks up to 4 weeks old, there is always a possibility of sudden loss. They require more care and closer monitoring then older birds. If you would prefer to avoid this possible situation, please purchase chicks at least 4 weeks old. Due to precise conditions needed to properly raise chicks, we do not guarantee the survival of baby chicks once they leave our farm. We do not offer free replacements. If you are having trouble with your chicks, please reach out to us and we can try to help!
Vaccinations
All 2025 chicks will be vaccinated for Mareks Disease. Chicks should be fed medicated chick starter starter to prevent coccidosis.
