Earthen Acres Homestead: First mixed laying flock

[Tre3hugger]

Upon further research, Wilma may be a Cream Legbar?? By process of elimination I think she must actually be one of the two blue egg layers in my flock. Thoughts welcomed. Idk, this breed stuff's confusing...ain't she cute tho?

I don’t have experience with these breeds but I’ve read that Welsumers have yellow legs whereas CLs have “willow” which is a shade of green.

Her legs are definitely yellowy...I wonder where my two sky blue eggs a day are coming from!?!?

 

[Cryss]

I could be wrong , just passing on something I read. Maybe someone could verify this?

2 girls left! This is Betty. I think she is an australorp mix, or barred rock something? I'm not really sure. She is the broodiest of my girls, and one of the largest also. She is not crazy about people, but is coming around.

Yea she was really strutting her stuff this morning lol. I'm pretty sure the white leghorn layed like an ostrich egg this morning. Sh*t was huge. I'll post a pic in a bit.

My leghorn dropped this bomb this morning.
