I figured that it was a hoax...on BYC.com there are two pictures of Green Leghorns, said to be the friendlest chickens.

By the way, I just moved my 5 week old chicks into their new Hen-house. I wasn't going to put on the heat lamp but they looked chilly, so I did. Tonight was going down to the sixties.

Um....the only BYC.com I could find was a yacht club?

Back Yard Chickens. I messaged the one who posted and he claims they are real! I don't know...

Not a hoax, we answered this question like a week ago...

Ok a month ago, time stands still here....

On the breed pages someone has an easter dyed chick, and noted it as a green leghorn, several people think it's a breed not a dyed chick...

oh! lol!

Yeah, the chick is dyed that color. I personally like the purple colored ones myself....but pink is also a nice color!
