    Developed in 1915 from a strain of Rhode Island Red brought into New Hampshire state, they were recognized as a distinct breed in 1935, (Sustainable Heritage Chicken Breed). Our New Hampshire originated from the “Newcomer” strain which was an egg laying strain and has been improved upon yearly on our own breeding farm. If you wish a bird that matures early, lays good, and is of heavy weight, then the New Hampshire is what you’re looking for.
