This is one of the most famous and all time popular breeds of truly American chickens. Developed in the early part of this century in the state of the same name, they have maintained their reputation as a dual purpose fowl through the years. Outstanding for production qualities, they have led the contests for brown egg layers time after time. No other heavy breed lays more or better eggs than the Rhode Island Reds. Our "production" strain is keeping up the fine reputation of this old favorite. Baby chicks are a rusty red color and the mature birds are a variety of mahogany red. Click to Enlarge

	Customer Product Reviews   Your Rhode Island Reds are the most dependable layers of brown eggs I've owned. My daughter showed a pair of pullets last year in the production class at our 4-H fair, and she entered their eggs in the brown egg class. She took first place in each category. Your RIR are hard to beat for brown egg layers in a home flock.     I have Rhode Island Reds and I love them!Every time I go to see them they follow me. They are still babies but I can tell from the start they are great birds.     I bought 6 of these chicks in an order, and am very happy with them. They are very curious and are growing fast!     These RIR are not only healthy and beautiful, but are the friendliest I've ever owned. One hen is allowed to range free during the day and loves to be picked up and adored. She accompanies us to the mailbox and on walks!     I have one male Rhode Island Red that I decided to keep as a pet. He has the most wonderful personality. He talks and chatters, is very gentle, and LOVES to be held and carried around the barnyard. A great pet!     I've had Rhode Island Reds for years and decided to purchase some from Murray McMurray. First, not a single loss during shipment, chicks were bright and energetic right from the start. They all feathered nice, have great dispositions/temperment and will soon be allowed to range with my older birds. Thank you for such healthy stock. The free rare chick sticks out like s sore thumb, but he "thinks" he's a red apparently. Thank you for your dedication to selling premium grade poultry.     I bought 5 of your RIR, and5 of your Barred Rock. They are wonderful and beautiful birds. This is my first year raising chickens, and so far it has been a success. I am proud of these chickens. And they have a great personality. They are very curious. One of the hens, loves to be touched. When you put your foot in the pen she comes right over to say hi. I love these birds, they are truly great.     Wow, Thank you for the chicks that you sent me. They are by far the most healthy chicks I've ever had. I tried to let the Rhode Island Reds out of the box and they just jumped out.What I like most of all is that they follow me where ever I go. Thank you Mcmurray Hatchery.     I'd like to say that Murray McMurray Hatchery is the best hatchery to have such a great assortment of poultry.I was very pleased with the RIR chicks that I received.The people that answer the phones are so nice.If you ever want to buy from a hatchery Murray McMurray Hatchery is the one for you.My chicks love to follow me around the yard.I love them so much.Thank you Murray McMurray Hatchery.     WE ORDERED 25 RHODE ISLAND REDS LAST FALL FOR THE FIRST TIME.

I already had some and decided to get more because they are very friendly. The chicks were in great shape when I recieved them. I would reccommend McMurray hatchery to any one who wants healthy birds. Thank you so much for the wonderfull service you provide.     We received our Rhode Island Reds last June. As a first time "chicken farmer" I was worried about doing something wrong but they were great. Not one bird had a problem. We have 18 hens and they lay an average of 14-18 eggs a day. They love attention and are very gentle. They meet me at the gate and swarm around my feet while I am with them and will follow me anywhere I go.     I received some Rhode Island Reds over a year ago and they are some of the hardiest breed of chickens I ever seen. They didn't go in the coop and survived the winter...WOW     This was my first attempt at raising chickens and I didn’t lose a single one. I am amazed at the health of the birds. All the birds are still in perfect health after 8 months and laying like crazy now. Thanks     I have had RIR for 4 years now and they are still running and looking like they were a year old! They are still VERY healthy and happy. I LOVE RIR!     I just received my RIR for the first time and they are great! They lay big, brown eggs every day and they are very hardy. Thanks again.     Very happy with our RIR,ordered 24 pullets & 2 cockerls back in Feb. All are doing great,waiting for our first eggs any day now.     I love my RIR they are beautiful and great personality.I thank overyone at MCmurray Hatchery I will be ordering again.THANKS AGAIN...I LOVE MY BABIES.     RIR are awesome chickens. I received 20 last year and they are all still laying. The best part about them is that they are more pets then farm chickens. They are just so sweet. Thanks
