I have 6 Barnies, they did start laying at about 28 weeks, but that is not an issue with me. Most of my poultry did. They don't lay the really dark eggs, but they are large, dark brown and some...

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....

Hehehe thanks ...Spaz loves compliments. I tend to think roo too, since there are big deep mahogany patches on his (?) wings. I just keep looking at that pretty round crest and such and wistfully think pullet thoughts at him. He is an amazing baby, though...he'll come out of the run to say hi when I go out, and stand there to be petted like a cat...or to jump on my arm and hand. I have a little 8 week old MGB that is the same way..he and Spaz get along great :D I am hoping they stay super sweet

Love the Tolbunts! Gorgeous!

Here is one of my Buff-laced bantams from this weekend. I turned 3 coops of youngersters out in my GSD's old dog kennel and they had a blast. The Polish just would.not. stand still, so I this is the only picture I have of one that's not a moving blur..lol. Also, I ended up with 2 pullets, so I'm thinking of looking for a roo to go with them. Should I look for a Buff-laced roo, or could I add another color roo for more interesting chicks? These are just for me, so fun is ok. =)

Illia, My WCB rooster is 5lbs. Do you know what the ideal weight is? I have found sites that say any where from 4-6 lbs.
