I'm seeing a lot of mixes being sold as pure. People stealing pictures (including of my rooster). People claiming to have a imported line other then Greenfire...just a comment... I've noticed a LOT of pictures recently of sfh with LARGE white earlobes... (not here, but on some auctions I've seen...) I would personally be wary of those, as I think there are some breeders out there mixing mille fleur leghorns with the sfh. leghorns typically have large white earlobes, while most sfh I've seen have more red or pink (red with a faint wash of white on it), which is more correct for the lightly tinted eggs we normally see. they also have a much larger comb and the hens tend to flop over (as seen in the second pic). these pics are just an example (from feathersite) of the mille fleur leghorns![]()
to contrast this, these are a few of my own SFH, showing the difference from the large white earlobe to one that's more red or pink...
