Cream Legbars

[ChickChuck22]

I got three cream legbar ladies in the autumn, for their beautiful eggs sweet temperaments and striking looks. However, I would be interested to know how good quality they were in regards to show type. Any suggestions would be welcome, as I'm only just learning what's good an what's not. Thank you

I think the girl in the last pic is too dark?

I see a promising mix of body type and color =)

We are still learning about UK show standards.
It seems like it takes more than a few generations to develop a particular line of Cream Legbars that are show ready, for any breeder.
It is difficult to assess your stock with a critical eye, but there does seem to be a base that you could develop from, especially with the correct rooster.

Thanks..... I have never had so many the same age at one time. They are very entertaining. They are the only chicks I have ever had that have pecked at my muck boot straps and paid so much attention to what I am doing. Very curious about everything. I have to laugh. I put them in the big coop at 8 weeks with older pullets and cockerels. They took over the coop leaving only the bottom roosts for the older birds. They have since worked it out but they knew exactly where they were supposed to be.

I have a question regarding wing carriage. I have a cockerel that I like but he always carries his wings low. I keep finding conflicting info on whether or not it would be passed on. So I thought I would ask for opinions.
