Hi there. So I purchased a beat magazine/catalog displaying Hansons Trapnested Pedigreed Leghorns in Corvallis, Oregon. They seem to really pride themselves on their outstanding leghorn breed. Anyway being a history nut it got me to wondering if they were still around. After googling them I found they closed in 1967. It then got to me wondering if there was a well known leghorn breeder left or if the large (Meyer, cackle, McMurtry) hatcheries were all that was left. After searching I couldn't find any. Does anyone know a prominent leghorn hatchery left? Just out of curiousity. Or does everyone just buy from the large hatcheries? My local guy is hit or miss with breeds but next year I want to expand my leghorns. Anyway thanks for the help!

I do not know of any only leghorn large scale hatchery.
Are you looking for Leghorns bred to the SOP or just hatchery leghorns?

Pretty cool find though!!
