Cream Legbars

I only have one CL so I'm interested in seeing the others' critiques of these birds, too. My little girl is much more cream in the neck than these two. We are thinking of getting involved with this chicken group so Im trying to see how my pullet compares.

Not a great pic, but you can see my little girl out front here. Oh how I love her! She is the friendliest, most curious little thing.

She is so pretty. I can't wait until mine get big. All my favorite chickens are curious and a little adventuresome.
 
Me too!  Ever since I got these CCL chicks I have thought these are the quietest calmest chicks I have ever had.  They are active, doing all the right chicken activities but very calm.  I don't have the silkie influence.... wish I did..... I can always use a hand around here.

I know what you mean lol
 
Here are my chicks.... what can I say..... you asked and I sure don't mind showing you the new babies. Proud mama. I have three shades of CCL.

Week Two:

Khaleesi: 01.9 Ounces - Curtis Hale line

^ Please excuse my dog being a creeper. He loves baby chicks.. perhaps a little too much.
Anyways, I absolutely love the little crest forming on this one! It's so adorable!

Eden: 01.5 Ounces - Jill Rees line

^ This one is much more tame than the other one. I like it's coloring more as I'm hoping it turns out to be more silver.

I sadly just lost my little Cream Legbar, Angel, this evening. She was such a fun, curious girl. She was my favorite. She was just 11 months old (I got her when she was about 5 months because i wanted blue eggs) and had never laid an egg. Don't know if that had anything to do with her death, but I'm going to see if I can get her up to UC Davis for a necropsy. We tried everything and three trips to the vet over the last 7 days to try to save her, but couldn't. I would like to get at least one more Cream Legbar, someday. But not anytime soon. I started with four chickens, all acquired within the last 10 months, and now I'm down to only 2. At the moment I have to admit I'm feeling like a bit of a failure as a chicken mom. I'm loving seeing the pictures on this thread, though!
 
In fact, here is a picture taken directly off of Greenfire Farm's Cream Legbar page:



I withdraw my disappointment and admit now that I was just nitpicking. As long as they can be autosexed, I believe that it's fine. I will continue to compare both of them and post here for you guys! Very excited to see how they look like as adults!

Maybe you just have a good eye for patterns.
It's nice that you enjoy your flock for their individual benefits & cute personalities.
If you ever decide to do more with Cream Legbars, your experience and thoughtful application of the SOP will be helpful.
