The Rhode Island Red is a very useful, delightful and entertaining bird to have in your flock. She does not need much care other than the basics of food, water and shelter. They are hardy chickens that are not prone to disease, which makes them ideal for beginners. They have become one of the staple birds of the modern homesteader as they have been proven over the years to be a reliable, no nonsense breed. Developed on the poultry farms in Little Compton, Rhode Island in the late 1800s, the Rhode Island Red breed grew in popularity throughout the United States, eventually becoming the state bird of Rhode Island! A well-deserved honor for such friendly and easy to care for girls!
