Dark Brown Leghorn
Have you checked in the Poultry Press or APA yearbook yet?YHF, I tried all spring to get leghorns from Mr. Urch. He had none available. I left the order in place hoping for some next year. I do have a trio of Egyptian Fayoumi I'm playing around with, and find them similar in some ways to leghorns.
LOL.......... Better add bar bells to the Cheerios then ! I thought I could too until these girls and boys matured. Great feather width and condition ! How could anyone miss that ? You practically need shades to look at her.Thanks. Did you note the feather width of that bird? I have to pick up all birds like that when I judge them. LF Brahma's are a handful.

So this a totel newbie question - I see many photographs of people holding birds that way and my mind cannot figure out how you all keep the birds so still. I just picture getting flailed in the face with wingsLOL.......... Better add bar bells to the Cheerios then ! I thought I could too until these girls and boys matured.

At a show you will see judges scooping up bantams, and most large fowl, by supporting their keels in the palm of their hand, and sometimes trapping their hocks between their fingers. As long as the birds are supported in a calm manner , very few birds struggle. I wrote on a thread that most people who do not show, do not know how to pick up a bird. The birds are then uncomfortable, and give you a hard time.So this a totel newbie question - I see many photographs of people holding birds that way and my mind cannot figure out how you all keep the birds so still. I just picture getting flailed in the face with wingsDo you need to train them from a young age or is it just natural for them? All of my birds let me pick them up but none of them seem happy about it.
On another note, I received my APA yearbook last night
