Red Dorking

Picture
The Red Dorking is a breed of chicken that is believed to have originated in Italy during the period of the Roman Empire and was introduced in Britain at the time of the Roman conquest making it one of the oldest English breeds. The breed is very docile making it ideal for families.  The Red Dorking has a rectangular body with very short, five-toed legs.  Red Dorking’s are also well known for their versatility as a breed for both egg and meat production. It is also one of the few breeds with red earlobes that produce a white-shelled egg. The skin colour beneath the feathers is white.

The standard weight is 14 pounds for a cockerel, 10 pounds for a hen, and 7 pounds for a pullet.   The hens make great mothers and lay approximately 190 white shelled eggs per year.
