The Legbar Thread!

Has anyone thought about writing a breed description for here on BYC about Legbars?

Lady Chickadee, they are precious. Thanks for posting...did you say how old they are?



Anyone...? Mine are getting big and will be 3-months old soon. They have clover in their run...I wonder if that is a growth tonic.

I've been creepin' this page for awhile trying to learn about this breed. Here are some pics of mine.



And one of the 2 girls.

I am getting ready to move four month-old pullets outside to a grow out coop. I have five eggs incubating from my own layers and six more eggs coming from boykin. I should be set. Even have my first egg auction going and ready to put up another.

Thanks!Mine are about 3 weeks old.





When do Cream Legbar pullets get their crest in? My cockerel is getting his in but my pullet hasn't yet.

QuackerJackFarms--

Hi Lady Chickadee,

CJWaldon on this thread has posted week-by-week pictures of cream legbars. I think the first one is at 6-weeks, and you can see a nice crest on the pullet. If you see a post by CJWaldon, click on MyCoop part of the avatar and you will see the fabulous week-by-week pictures. Hope this will help you get an idea. :O)


Thanks again CJ for the approach for seeing their growth.

I got them from a guy in Kansas. They are pretty much my favorite of all my breeds.

I had three precious little legbar chicklets hatch this morning from MadamWlfCumbos beauteous egglings

It would have been 5 if one of my stupid incubators had not died the night before

One of the roos is lighter than the other

. The Pullet looks like she has a spot on her head but it is only the moisture from her hatch that has not fluffed up yet

Very cute! That one rooster is quite a bit lighter than the other... I wonder why? I have hatched some out before that were lighter than others but never one that light. It will be interesting to see how he looks compared to the others as he matures. Please keep us updated
