I'm trying to look forward to retirement. I hate the thought that it might suck.

Same!

4 dollars a month more for having him? I won’t mention the insurance company for fear of a lawsuit

Thank you. I think so too.

RC, in case this hasn’t been spelled out yet, Brown Leghorns are the “Leg” part in our Legbars.

I got that the ‘Leg’ bit came from Leghorn. It was the brown that flummoxed me!
I realize this is a complicated topic around what is a breed and who decides, so am thinking my previous state of ignorance on the topic may be a safer state to live in!

I did not know there were rosecomb Leghorns!

Just so we are all clear: A Leghorn chicken is white (but could be any color), with a big floppy single comb (but could have a rose comb), a lanky body (but could be any shape) and lays lots of white eggs. I am sure someone is about to tell me some Leghorns lay purple eggs.
It is as clear as mud!

Same!

I am retiring in 369 days and counting. It will be a busy year but I am excited!
