Barred Rock Chicks

Backyard Poultry
Contemplation
And last but not least: the Barred Plymouth Rocks. I got three of this breed in my second batch of chicks. I think Barred Rocks are one of the breeds that look most different as chicks and adults. The chicks don't even show a hint of the zebra stripes that will dominate the adults' feathers. Likewise, the little white spot on the chicks will be lost entirely as they mature. I also think Barred Rock chicks also have a smart and curious look about them. They just seem...intelligent. What do you think is going through this Barred Rock chick's little mind?

Maybe contemplating the lovely-colored litter? If a chick that size has a mind. :p
