Meet Moses

[CluckyJay]

This is my best rooster. He isn't quite grown but really knows how to treat his ladies, lol.

 

[gryeyes]

What a HANDSOME roo! I love his name....

 

[uncle rico]

beautiful roo you have there

what breed is he?

 

[Tina D]

Love him! He is gorgeous.

 

[CluckyJay]

Thanks guys! He is such a good leader I just had to name his Moses, lol.

Moses is a leghorn rooster from McMurray hatchery.

 

[uncle rico]

He looks a little dark to be a White Leghorn-is he of a different variety?

 

[CluckyJay]

Nah, that is ash from his dust bath. They all look lavender in person from the ash, lol.

 

[uncle rico]

I thought there was some strain of leghorn out there that was slightly off-white but I can't recall the name of it. I guess I was wrong this time

 

[CluckyJay]

I think there are actually lavender leghorns. I don't know though, lol.

These are really white though. I must admit that when they have recently dusted themselves, they are so darn pretty. They are a pretty, light purple-y color. Makes me wish they really were that color, lol.
