Minorcas vs Brown or Red Leghorns

[Franklinridgefarms]

I’ve had several white Leghorns and a couple brown and red Leghorns each, years ago. Are Minorcas similar in disposition and egg laying to those?

Hi, I have owned Leghorns, but I have not owned Minorcas, so unfortunately, I cannot chime in with personal experience to compare the two. But as no one has chimed in with their experiences as of yet, I will link the Minorca breed description here on BYC: Minorca
Based on my limited reading on them, it sounds like they are quite similar to Leghorns, in both temperament and egg laying abilities.

I have have a minorca, it was by accident. it is one my oldest chickens at 7 years old and it still lays more consistently than my other birds which are barred rocks, speckled Sussex, orpington and buck eye
