Someone should look into this.

I wonder if you feed mica flakes to the girls if you can get sparkly eggs...

Brooks, Leghorn?

Brooks, Leghorn?

I'm guessing he's going to say they're not docile.

Brooks, Leghorn?

No, I am not.

Seriously they look a little too scrawny for my tastes.

 

[Chipmunk Chicks]

How light tho? I need lighter than Barred Rock and Speckled Sussex and mix of the two.

How light is the Speckled Sussex egg? I want to add them but I want to be able to tell them from my Australorps. Same with Dominiques. I'm unsure about telling them apart if they are kept together, or just being saturated with light brown eggs.

@The Moonshiner approves!!! It is decided.

I really don't know. All my eggs range from dark cream to light brown. Some have a pinkish hue.

Good enough for me!

It's okay, you can tell us how you really feel about leghorns after moony leaves

I really want to add to the flock but I need breed suggestions.

• Light in color (not buff)
• Single comb
• Clean legs
• Docile/calm
• White eggs

Leghorns?
