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've read through the thread of tips and tricks regarding sexing EEs, but I'd like to have a few sets of more experienced eyes take a look at this one. I have a flock of 6 birds. This one, dubbed "Crusher" by the kids, is usually standing a short distance away from the other 5 and is the most dominant. I haven't heard any crows yet. The neck feathers seem fancier but no difference in the comb. If different photos are needed I can take more. Thank you!

Looks like a girl to me, especially if she's already 4 months old.

You got a lively pullet. I have its twin, her name is goose because of the black head and brown, grey body.

Well, the kittens aren't so cute anymore and the easter egger cockerels are in the freezer. Plus, I think offering them as "prizes" scared folks off! So, I'm still posting quotes, if you know it let me know. I'm very enamored of this new one, it may hang around for a while!
