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 16 Welsummer pullet chicks and 3 Welsummer roo chicks. My coop is 6X6 with an 5 hole outside accessible nest box. My run is 15W X 25L. I made my coop so that it has a trap door in the bottom and its about 2.5 ft off the ground. They can run in and out and I shut them up at night since they are only about a month old.
