Rhode island red

The Rhode Island Red is the most successful dual-purpose bird of all and remains an excellent farm chicken. They lay very good brown eggs and are known for their hardiness and ability to produce eggs even in marginal conditions. Rhode Island Reds can produce 200 to 360 eggs per bird in a twelve-month laying period and begin laying as early as six months of age.
