Leghorn
Reviewed by Chicken Goddess

Leghorns are great egg laying chickens. They are friendly to other Leghorns and can easily fly. The only problems is that they are bad in the pecking order and they can make a mess of the yard....

I will start by saying that I love Australorps. In fact, my very favorite hen is an Australorp. She is such a sweet chicken and just let's you walk right up to her to pick her up. She doesn't run...

Here is my baby! I'm a first time EE owner!
Can't wait to see her grow!
My 9 year old niece named her 'fluff' because of the puffs below her eyes.

I dream of a day where chickens can cross the road without having their motives questioned

Me and my Hubby, 2 dogs, 1 French Cuckoo Maran, 1 Barred Rock, 5 RIR's, 1 Easter Egger, 2 Leghorns, 1 Araucana, 2 Mottled Cochins, 2 Cochin Cross, 1 Frizzle, 1 Phoenix, and 1 question mark.

Is this EE a cockerel or hen? (The one on the right)

S/he is 7 weeks.

Chickens include 1 Light Brahma rooster, 10 Brahma hens, 11 EE hens, 4 Black Australorp hens, and currently hatching out brahma X EE chicks. I also enjoy sheep, a great dane, barn cats, beehives, and organic gardening.

I had to share some pics of my EE's, I ended up getting some really cool colors this year. I cannot wait to see what they will end up producing later when I can hatch out some of their eggs!

This is Kona, she started out a very dark black/brown chick. Never thought she would end up mostly white!

Edgar my up and coming rooster. I love the colors coming in on him even has some blue on his tail.

Mystery, thinking she is a bantam (so much smaller than the rest) She has lots of blues and golds. Mocha is next to her, she has the more typical EE coloring.

Latte is a light buff and white colored EE and a nice big beard!

Cafe I call her my red laced blue EE, the picture really doesn't give her justice.

A nice group shot, minus Edgar.

Silkies, silkies, and more silkies!

Hope so! She's supposed to be, But I've had mistakes sold to me as well. Keeping my fingers crossed.
