RIR's are a reasonably good duel purpose bird. Many farms who use them for both eggs and meat will wait to butcher until the hens are past egg production age which is about 18 months to 2 years old. At this time they go one corn feed instead of layer feed and are fattened up for about six weeks.

Yes! Rhode Island Reds are usually friendly and good pets but can also be aggressive if irritated or if in confined. If raised right, Reds can be loving and often stay in groups. Rhode Island Reds lay brown eggs, which (if the chicken is raised right) can be plentiful. Hope this helps! (check wikipedia for more information)
They have feathers for weather protection.
