I am sure enjoying everyone's pictures! CP I hope you stick with the CLB for a bit longer. I really like your birds. I know how hard it can be to make space though. I live on land with no neighbors and it is still a problem. I am trying to do three different breeds (including the CL) and I don't think I will ever have enough space. I casually mentioned to my husband about needing another small coop for all the boys and the look on his face was priceless...
I have had my struggles getting going with my Legbars and was feeling pretty disheartened about the whole enterprise but I then I decided to just make do with what I have for the time being. My birds are not great and the two pullets I managed to hatch earlier were pretty disappointing. However, I set 10 eggs under my best broody and all 10 hatched and I ended up with 8 pullets and 2 cockerels. Finally the percentages are on my side!
I scooped up all the girls and brought them inside and left the two boys with mama. She has turned out to be the absolute best broody, I am so thankful I have her. Here are the little boys:
And the girls:
