Plymouth Rock Chickens Australia | Barred Backyard Breed

Local pickup is from our designated meet point in Bargo, NSW. You must be available to pickup Sunday 22 November at 10am.

Hardy, friendly, and easy to spot in any yard. The Plymouth Rock's dark and light barred feathers give the breed its nickname, Barred Rock, and its dual-purpose build makes it one of the more versatile backyard breeds around.

We breed backyard quality Plymouth Rocks here on our Southern Highlands, NSW farm, raised on our own feed with plenty of space and sunlight so they're settled and confident before they join your coop. Well-started birds are available periodically throughout the year, from day-old chicks through to point of lay.

Developed in the United States from crosses of Black Cochins and Dominiques, the Plymouth Rock has become one of the most widely kept dual-purpose breeds in the world. Hens are calm and friendly, laying around four to five brown eggs a week, and settle well into flocks with children around. They handle a wide range of Australian climates without much fuss, which is part of why they're such a reliable choice for beginners.

Available stages: Day-old unsexed chicks, 8 to 12 weeks, 12 to 18 weeks, and approaching point of lay. See current pricing for details.

Local pickup is from our designated meet point in Bargo, NSW, or we can work with your chosen transport company to arrange delivery Australia-wide.

Once the birds are transferred to the buyer, The Poodle and The Hen takes no responsibility for any injuries, illnesses, or deaths that may occur. Please see our backyard poultry terms of sale before purchasing. If transport is needed, please contact The Poodle and The Hen directly via email to make arrangements.
