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....

My mixed up flock of Barred Rocks, Red hens, Brown Leghorns, Speckled Sussex, EEs, BLRW, Buff Orps, Wellies and Delawares Marans and Ameracaunnas, lone Sebright roo and a Muscovy quad.

In quarantine a quintuplet of barred rocks (hopefully hens)

In the brooders: Pekin ducklings, New Hampshire Reds, Buff Orps, Iowa Blue.

Very clever. My wife is looking over my shoulder this morning....

Looks like I have another project on my ever growing list of things to do.

Thank you for the great idea.

I LOVE IT!!!

In our old house, hubby made me a built-in china hutch and put chicken wire in instead of glass in the doors. So I am planning on having him build another one for me for this house and now I think I want to add a chicken wire photo frame so I can continue the chicken wire theme in more than one place

Thank you for the terrific idea!

That is just cute! I really want hubbie to cut out the middle of my cabnet doors in my kitchen and replace them with chicken wire. I did that on a bread box and it looked really good.

This is soooo cute! Great idea, thanks for sharing it! I'm going to use this as soon as I can find a good frame.

Trust in the Lord and follow His word with love for all mankind. For He is our shepherd and His followers know His voice. Come and take a walk with Jesus, for his love is for the sinners and the believers.
