I had some around 2000/2002 . They where good birds. if I remember correctly they where breed by a family in Florida. most of what people assume are dominique's are actually barred rocks. you did good snaching em up.
correction: it is considered to be America's oldest chicken breed.they where nearly extinked but an effort was made to preserve the breed. one of the breeders was in Florida ,not originally breed in Florida.

I sure do want some chickens but I haven't had time to build a pen. This would be the absolute perfect time of year to get chicks. They'd be sexually mature and ready to start laying when the days started getting longer after the winter solstice.w
If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:14

egg production is half of what it was in late spring, early summer. come on fall ! These barred rock birds I added to my flock sure are some pretty birds. They are almost twice the size of my reds.

I have a jack Russell that has become part of the flock. he does good at protecting them.
