1 dozen Exhibition Type Single Comb White Leghorn

[tandersphoenix]

My girls are finally laying! I have set and checked fertility and we are good to go for the season. This line of Leghorns has produced champions for myself and also for several of my customers. The Sire to these eggs is the rooster pictured. He was reserve champion Mediterranean at the Missouri State Fair in 2009 and has produced 2 pullets since then who have been on champion row for others that I know of. Thanks NPIP flock as well as certified Avian Influenza Clean.

I usually have very good luck with shipping but cannot guarantee condition or hatch rate of shipped eggs. Shipping to continental 48 except Virginia. I will add any extras I have on shipment day! Thanks

How well do the exhibition strains lay?

 

[josh44]

Yes I would like to know how well exhibition strains lay & if they also start laying as early as utility bred leghorns ?

Hi, They are not big layers. I introduced some new blood a couple years ago and it helped but if you want them for egg production these are not the ones. They lay most of the year but not like the big producers..

They do start laying pretty quick, usually by the time they are 5 or 6 months and they do lay better while they are young.

That rooster sure is purty, though!

Thanks, the big roosters do get a lot of attention at the shows!
