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...

We got some straight run barred rocks from TSC then decided we wanted to make sure we had some pullets so we went back and got 6. The guy working wasn't sure what breed they were since the "chicken guy" wasn't working. Please help identify them, there are 3 buff colored and 3 reddish with black markings, they're about3-4 weeks old.

Buff,

The reddish

9 Barred Rocks, 3 Buff Orpingtons, 3 RIR, 3 Black Jersey Giants, 1 Silver Laced Wyandotte, 4 easter Eggers, 5 Pekins, 2 Cayugas, and 10 new assorted chicks-what am I doing?

The buff looks like a Buff Orpington, and the reddish could be New Hampshire Reds, or Rhode Island Reds, or just a mixed red pullet. All three are great for egg laying.

Proud owner of some nice show quality Buckeyes and Silver Penciled Plymouth Rocks. I love gardening and being outdoors. I'm lucky to have a great family, and two cute dogs. I live out in the country on six wooded acres and it's just paradise! (Except the mortgage payment and bills, of course)

I was thinking BO for the buff, they are growing faster than the rest but those reds have me puzzled lol. Thanks for the reply
