California White or Leghorn?

[wordgirl]

Which would you get? Pros, cons for either? Are the Cal. Whites' combs as subject to frostbite as the leghorns'? Which would do better in the cold?

I can't comment too much on the Ca whites but a leghorn would be my last choice unless I was only concerned about egg production and feed conversion. Too flighty, hyper scaredy cats for me.

My little CA White Leghorn is the most calm bird, she's stay right in the nest if you try to look under her.

My PW Leghorn and my LB Leghorn and my Ancona are all VERY FLIGHTY.
