    Crested Cream Legbar Genotype vs. Phenotype

    Normanack and Dredt, glas is an excellent word, the color of the sea, of grass, or of silver. Now we need a Celtic or other old word for the color of tropical waters, the aqua blue near a peach and apricot sunset, or the drop of a new mint leaf into a bucket of soft blue sky. Then, the way I...

    Managed to get another up. Ok, color in males increasing left to right. Very dark female.

    Cream Legbars

    On the left my lightest male. Would love to upload more, but experiencing difficulties. Just wanted to say my males will probably begin showing all their color from here on out. There are 12 from an Easter hatch. Many are dark. I went back to the photos of my original GFF males at this age...

    The Legbar Thread!

    Thank-you on the close up, GaryDean26! Just trying to get a sense of variation in the lighter tones. Steen, Yes, these goats are easy and more fun than I imagined. My two oberhasli couldn't be sweeter! Yet they are very much goats, still prone to getting after things, if the chance arises...

    Cream Legbars

    Newly hatched male. I see reddish brown and slate blue or perhaps it's silver-grey. He seems like Lonnyandrinda's yellow/orange (not pink) band, so perhaps more likely to carry more chestnut. Even though I have typically had darker males at hatch, some positive loss of chestnut coloring is...

    So I have this lighter male. Please look at, I see lots of red and slate blue. My guess is he will have some chestnut. Lonnyandrinda, showed a nice set of comparison photos on the Cream Legbars thread. Her more similar lighter male chick appears to have chestnut is this wings. Those who...

    Cream Legbars

    Likewise, albeit I haven't hatched much, but have a friend doing a small hatch, so I'll check on hers. Do I remember you having a friend with the gold legbars? It might be nice to see/know their down color on females. I have always been curious about the gold, being the "brown stripe type"...

    Those little ones are darling! Love the crocked, half-up, half-down ears.

    GaryDean26, Can you show us the Blaze male chick with a larger photo? The chick seems almost like it has some slate blue to it. Of course these are not a cream legbars, but this is the slate blue color tone I see within the back stripping on your new Blaze cockerel. Last year, just...

    The Legbar Thread!

    Edited the long post, so you know it was my general public rant. For Kermit the frog, it's not easy being green. Some days it's not easy being me. Having a positive feeling of esteem for others, what they are saying, why, and where they are coming from (not only in the sense of geographic...

    Yikes, I better post some chicks or something. Too many lengthy posts. How about an evening shot, and a blurry one of my soon to be mama goat trimming some hedges? Both she and my other are due ~May 23, likely sooner and with multiples (if all goes well). I'm bursting with anticipation of...

    The Legbar Thread!

    ChicKat, I thought about this yesterday, but I figured I should give it a day. When I type in the word omlet in my search engine, I get the UK location for omlet on ~page 3. When I type in Amazon, I still hadn't found the UK site at page 6. This is just to say if you and I search for...

    The Legbar Thread!

    Yes, I know today's standard. I own a copy of the British Poultry Standards, 6th edition, which as I mentioned does not contain a photo of a legbar. It is of value to me to know that the photo was published in an earlier standard. Thank-you for the information. While I don't spend my time...

    The Legbar Thread!

    My general thoughts. Most of us would agree, this is a breed specific site where what we want to hear and learn about is basically the same. We might also learn a bit of each others' life and styles. No one has to possess a resume to post here. Few, if any of us have any resume on cream...

    http://s20.postimg.org/5vly21vnh/online_standard.gif Nice to have this above link, am wondering where the photo came from and it's date. The most up to date standard does not show any photos of legbars. I agree is a young cockerel. His comb is going to grow quite a bit more and so are his...
