I have both brown and white Leghorns, mine are friendly and yes the only problem I've had with them is roosting high in the apple tree in the summer (because then I worry about them)
I'm trying to picture these guys out in the field foraging with the rest of the flock, they just look so different but I like it. Upright and slight of build. I can see them becoming adept at evading predators. Can't wait to get mine in April. So...I already have chicks coming..but BDRanch I was...
My order has been changed from June 15th to the week of April 18th. I called for cancellations. Thats much better than waiting until mid June..got to get those babies growing:)
Thats what i was thinking. Ever in the pursuit of the bluest egg, im excited to try these! Plus i like the lean look. I hope 8 is enough...plus i ordered 1 male because my wierd chicken logic says maybe the males will have extra long "tassels" since the birds' maker specializes in fly tying feathers
