Papa's Poultry Legbar or Bielefelder Rooster Temperament?

[mchickies]

Bielefelder rooster it is, then! By the way, an idea on the Papa's Poultry Auto-sexing "visually identical to Bielefelders" birds? When I checked his "Laying and Fertility Update" here, it seems that they are a Bielefelder/Rhodebar mix. Do you think that's going to affect the temperament or are Rhodebars pretty chill as well?

Insult to injury....or the other way around in his case .

Either way, he became history.

I've never had a Rhodebar, so that I cannot answer.

Ok, thank-you so much for all of the help! I really appreciate it! I'll have to delve into my own research on Rhodebar temperament. Hopefully, it isn't too big of a deal...that or I'll wait until the Fall for his true Bielefelders. Know any other place (not a hatchery) that sells Bielefelders and Legbars (I still want hens for the blue eggs)?

Bielefelder's don't lay blue eggs.

Oh, no ! I was referring to the Legbars...I still want a few Legbar hens for their blue eggs. I'm well aware that Bielefelders DO NOT lay blue eggs. Haha!

By the way, just saw your Bielefelders in your profile posts. They are gorgeous! Mr. Hawkeye is a real beaut!

I agree that he is, and thanks!

Edited to add that he's going to have some offspring hatching the 1st of the month.

Yay! I hope your hatch goes well! Are you populating a bigger flock or is this a breeding project?

I hatch and sell here in Arizona.
