The BLACK ROCK is a sex-linked
Hybrid bred from two specific strains of natural breeds of birds, the Rhode
Island Red (male lin
e) and Barred Plymouth Rock. Their thick rich plumage
protects them from weather conditions. This together with their highly
developed natural immune
system means they have the potential to have a long productive life. Being
very docile they are not easily stressed and as a result do not need de-beaking.
They produce 280+ eggs in the first year of life and lay persistently well
throughout their life. It is indeed the ideal free-range layer. It loves
the outside.
Colour of Egg: Tinted/Brown
INTRODUCING
THE "COLUMBINE"
The
Columbine, bred from the Cream Crested Legbar is still being developed as
a commercial
blue egg laying hybrid.
A breeding programme, involving the use of traditional
British bloodlines gives a varied coloured bird,
from cream or tan through to blue and grey, or mottled feathering, often with a
lighter hue to the breast.
A proportion are crested and comb size varies. It is a VERY active
bird and thrives on free range,
consuming large amounts of vegetation.
A good sized bird, with 80% laying a blue/green, medium to large egg, the
remainder lay a range of pastel shades.
