What color of Leghorn did you start with??? and what breed did you get the Lav gene from??? i am working on 2 lav projects myself so i find any and all info very informative...
Wow, you guys are seriously informed on this thread! I just got three Buff Leghorns and came to see what you all had to say about them? Definitely going to be some reading to do to get caught up to you all! (Mine are still babies, about four weeks old now, I presume..? The photo was taken two weeks ago)
Of course my "Mommy Dog" Toby had to clean them up! he is a great dog, very loving and very caring, he takes care of cleaning all of the babies we rescue and raise here! LOL!
That is more than likely the case with mine. They are very light, almost a yellowish-white in color. I am fairly sure they are Buff Leghorns, they came from a good place that breeds pretty good quality chickens. The same place I bought my Bantams from a year ago, as a matter of fact. I was really interested in getting Leghorns because of the production level egg laying, they are known for. Now I have a Rhode Island Red and two Buff Orpingtons too, so that should set us pretty well in a little while with our egg producers!Math ace,Those buff chicks look good,you are right the medium buff chicks are best,but a limited use of some richer buffs can be beneficial.Helps hold buff color and is a reserve of color.Very pale buff is the hardest to use as it breeds even lighter until white starts showing up.
