Barred Plymouth Rock Hens
Barred Plymouth Rock Hens are an American favorite, known for their dual-purpose qualities as both egg layers and meat birds. These hardy chickens feature distinctive black and white barred feathers, with roosters typically lighter in color than hens. They are incredibly friendly, making them a popular choice for small farms and backyard coops alike.
At 8-10 weeks old, our Barred Plymouth Rock hens are fully feathered and sexed, ready to produce an average of 4-5 large brown eggs per week. Whether you're looking for a reliable egg producer or a docile bird for your family, these hens fit the bill perfectly. They are also cold-hardy, continuing to lay eggs even in colder climates, while also tolerating heat, making them ideal for Arizona and other varied climates.
Care and Habitat: These hens are suitable for both free-range and coop environments. They are calm, curious, and get along well with other chickens, making them easy to manage in a mixed flock.
Egg Production: Expect consistent egg production year-round, with an average of 4-5 large brown eggs per week. Barred Plymouth Rocks mature quickly and begin laying at around 5-6 months of age.
Health & Nutrition: Provide them with a diet of balanced layer feed, grains, and calcium supplements to promote healthy eggshells. They are a sturdy breed, able to withstand harsh weather, so providing proper nutrition is key to maintaining their productivity.
Why Choose Barred Plymouth Rock Hens? Their rich history as one of America's oldest and most beloved breeds makes them an excellent addition to any flock. Their friendly, calm nature and consistent egg production make them perfect for beginner poultry keepers.

My new girls
The ordering process was quick and easy. I really liked the fact that there was no minimum number of birds I had to purchase since I have a small flock and I only wanted a few more.
The communication between Colwlyn and I was great. He even adjusted the pickup date for me since I was out of town when my girls were ready.
I was able to pick up my girls and bring them home with multiple appointments available.
My girls are settling nicely into their new home and I will recommend AZ Chickens to everyone! Thank you so much!
