White egg layers

[gocrow77]

So, I'm looking and realized other than my Polish I have absolutely NO white egg layers in my flock. I know leghorns obviously lay white eggs, and Andalusians ( sp? ) but other than those breeds what are my choices? What do you have for white layers and why did you choose that particular breed? I want something that will lay well AND be eye candy. I am bidding on some of the Andalusians on ebay ( blue laced - hope I get them! ). I would like to get a few others as well though. Any suggestions?

The dual purpose brown layers ( which I love don't get me wrong ) are pretty much all that's available at the feed stores in my area and they are all done selling for the season.

Wish I had realized this sooner!

Minorcas and Anconas and some Old English Games.

I have a 10 week old Ancona that is real eye candy and she has a VERY interesting personality... probably the most 'flighty' bird I've ever had, but she is very comical to watch when I let them out to eat grass at night.

Leghorns come in quite a variety of colors. Whites are a little better layers, but my light browns are hard workers. Some of the other colors have very good reputations too.

We couldn't resist a little Silver Lakenvelder at the Feed Store - very rare bird but she is so pretty. They lay white eggs and pretty well (she's only 8 weeks so no proof) and they say they're very flighty, but this girl is a people chicken. Follows us everywhere and climbs up to sit on your shoulder.
