Ya know... my wife and I were talking last night and we were perplexed by something. Why are White leghorns not more proflific in the BYC community? For their purpose they are the best egg layers, and whats more pretty then a few pure white birds romping around in the lawn? I know everyone has their own tastes. I am just amazed that so many people have all these type of chickens and yet leghorns dont seem very common.
If you take the shell off first and throw it away, you won't know they aren't white and you won't gag.I personally am not a fan just because I have a hard time eating eggs that arent white(stupid I know, but they make me gag).

Howdy!
I live in Maple Valley and there's no limits here (unless you are in a close to Covington (10 minutes) and Issaquah (15 minutes), 35 minutes to Bellevue, and far enough off the beaten track that nobody complains about my woodstove or chickens.
I suspect that is due to Maple Valley being considered "rural." I know if you go deeper into Graham all property cant be subdivided to less then 5acre lots in which case there is no limits to chickens(or wood stoves since its considered a primary source of heat). Last time I went out to Maple Valley it seemed very undevloped and rural with a few housing developments here and there.
The area I am in Graham it's 10 acres minimum. It used to be less judging by some of the properties around. We're zoned rural sensitive resource in this area. It's all the water.
