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 have a hatchery SS roo that looks like the less spangled one. I hatched one daughter from him (and a less-spangled hen) that has a lot of white, so it varies within the breed. I just went to the Ohio Nationals (as a spectator) this past weekend and although I did not see any male SS there I was struck by how much different the SQ hens were from my own hatchery girls. They had a completely different body shape--they could have been a different breed entirely. Just a heads-up if you're planning to breed or show hatchery SS smile
