Looking for blue hued plumage, sex-link chicks, and large light-medium brown eggs? Then the Plymouth Blue Rock is your chicken. This cross between Plymouth Barred Rocks and the Native Andalusians imported from the Czech Republic allow for smoky blue-grey plumage that can also exhibit barring patterns of darker blue hues.

 

What color eggs does a Plymouth Blue Rock lay, and how many a year?

Plymouth Blue Rock hens lay about 250 to 280 large light brown eggs a year. Many people search for it as Blue Plymouth Rock or Blue Rock chicken.

When do Plymouth Blue Rock hens start laying?

They mature at about 20 to 22 weeks and usually start laying soon after.

Can I order only hens, or will I get roosters?

Your choice. Order Female for hens only, Male for roosters, or Straight Run for chicks boxed as hatched, which usually means a mix. Our sexing is guaranteed 90% accurate. You don't need a rooster for eggs, and one rooster for every 6 to 10 hens is plenty if you want fertile eggs.

Is the Plymouth Blue Rock cold hardy, and what is its temperament?

Very. Plymouth Blue Rocks do great in both cold and warm climates. They are calm, friendly, and curious, and a great bird for families.

Do you ship Plymouth Blue Rock chicks?

Yes. We ship by USPS to every state except Hawaii, and you pick your ship week in the cart from the weeks we are hatching this breed. Order minimums change by season, and your cart shows the current minimum before checkout. Every order is covered by our 100% Live Arrival Guarantee. If they don't arrive alive, call us within 48 hours and we will make it right. Count your chicks when you get them home.

What is the difference between a Plymouth Blue Rock and a Barred Rock?

Our Plymouth Blue Rock is a Barred Rock and Andalusian cross from the Czech Republic. It has smoky blue-gray feathers, sometimes with darker blue barring, and lays a few more eggs a year than a Barred Rock.
