I purchased 3 supposed Cream Legbar hens. I was told they came from Green Fire Farms. One started laying brown speckled eggs, and I was told, "poops, must be a Welsummer. They are easy to mix up. The other two have never laid an egg, let along a blue egg. I was then told "they are molting so they wont lay right now."
First of all, in NC it has been well into the high 90's and as high as 107 degrees. 2nd, they dont look like they are molting.

Is the hen that is pictured entirely by herself a Welsummer?
Is the hen pictured behind the rooster a Cream Legbar?
Will Cream Legbars Hens stop laying entirely if they are "molting"? Or this time of year?

I have had them for 2 weeks and zero blue eggs.
 
Neither is a Cream Legbar. Nor is either a Welsummer. The two couldn't be mixed up as chicks or adults, they look nothing alike. The big hen could be a Bielefelder, the other looks like a mixed breed.
 
They aren't clb hens.
They may not lay for a few weeks if they are stressed from the move. Molting hens often don't lay. I have several molting now (and not laying) and it has been in the mid to high 90's here.
Hope they start laying soon. Maybe they will lay blue if they are a clb mix. Whatever they are I hope they will grow on you. Good luck.
