Cream legbar? Bielefelder?

[ThePurpleMoose]

Long story short; my mother in law had some chicks in our coop until they were big enough to go to her place. She took what she thought were cream legbars and left our bielefelders. This one has developed a crest similar to the legbars we already have. Can anyone confirm what I’m thinking?

That is definitely a Legbar!
Edit: Also, keep it. It's really cute!

Okay, thank goodness someone backed me up.

As Mark Wahlberg would say, "Dat's your mudda's leg baaaah!"

I agree it’s cute! I already have 5 legbars and was hoping for the bielefelder I had purchased

Oh no! Hopefully you can get them swapped back. Curious if you have a preference for one breed or the other? We’ve been interested in both, but have never pulled the trigger. I’m worried the Bielefelder won’t fit through my auto door!

I like the legbars. Mine aren’t super friendly but definitely not mean. They also produce beautiful large eggs. We did deal with some mild frostbite on their combs this winter. I’ve heard bielefelders are better for harsh winters which is why I got a couple. No preference yet since the bielefelder is still so young.
