I purchased 2 Pullets from a man nearly a month ago. I went looking for Australorps but came across these two girls and ended up bring them home. He told me the girls were about 6 months old and a mix between White Leghorn and Golden Comet. However when I asked him what breed he recommended pairing them with, if I did, he said RIR or White Leghorn.
For other reasons, I was ready to leave and not really 100% on what I was taking home. About two weeks after bringing them home they started to lay, we have gotten 1 tan egg almost every day from each girl. Nice hard great tasting eggs about medium sized. I would just like some opinions on their genetics. The darker one, Louise is more aggressive towards my young Bantams and one of them was killed one night so we had to create a barrier in the Coop for the time being.
Any info would be great. Do you think they are White Leghorn and Golden Comet or White Leghorn and RIR mixes?
This is Thelma
This is Louise
Both girls together
and me holding Louise so there is some reference to size
and their eggs
