What do you get when you cross breed Rhode Island red and Plymouth Rock?

You will get a hybrid (crossbreed) chicken called a Black Star. They are not 'actual' breeds, because if you would let the offspring have offspring of their own, they would not look similar to their parents and be considered crossbreeds. The Black Star is a very popular hybrid chicken that produces a lot of eggs.

Are Golden Comet chickens and Red Star chickens the same breed?
Golden Comets, Red Stars and Cinnamon Queen are all red sex-linked birds. They are hybrids created by taking a Rhode Island Red or New Hampshire Red rooster and crossing him with a White Rock or Plymouth Barred Rock, White Leghorn or another light hen. These chickens are not a breed - they are hybrids bred for egg production and the fact that the female chicks will be red and the male chicks will be white. The Golden Comet has a White Rock mother, in most of the references I found, and the Red Star will have a Plymouth Barred Rock mother. So they are similar but different.
A red Star hen is a cross of which two breeds?

If you cross white leghorn rooster with rhode island red hen will the chicks be sex links or mixed?
NO, neither breed is sexlinked. What you need to do is breed a Rhode Island Red or New Hampshire rooster with a Barred Rock(Black Stars) or Rhode Island Red or New Hampshire rooster and a Silver Laced Wyandotte, Rhode Island White or Delaware hen(all Red Stars) and you will get sexlinked chicks. The chicks that hatch out solid black are pullets(hens) and the chicks that hatch out black but with a large yellow dot on top of their heads are cockerels(males).This answer is wrong. The rooster has to be the Rhode Island Red and the hen the White Leghorn. The pullets will have reddish fluff and the males will have yellow fluff leading to white feathers.

How do you cook a Rhode Island Red Hen?
Rhode Island Reds aren't the best type of chicken to cook. Their bodies are bred to lay eggs, not put on meat. It would be wiser to used a meat bird, such as a Cornish Cross. If you want to use a Rhode Island Red, just prepare as you would any chicken.
Is there a chicken called red cross?
There is a New Hampshire Red, Rhode Island Red, and a Redcap. I suppose a Red Cross could be a product of breeding two of these together.
