Apparently the frosty are the same as White Cream Legbars. And $62 is a lot for a CL chick!
Huge money. I wish I could get 20 bucks for mine. I am going to be lucky to get 5 bucks.

I would love to add a few white sports to my flock! So beautiful!
Does GFF's Jill Rees line throw white sports? I am intrigued.
I have been looking into purchasing some chicks or hatching eggs from the Rees line. My search seems to keep circling back to GFF since they have "direct imports". I have been on GFF's website frequently but haven't taken the plunge yet. Which line of Rees Legbars does GFF have? I just see them listed as either Rees or "production cream legbars" on their website.Yes, I have some from my Rees line.
I have C and D lines.

All Legbars came from GFF. I assume they have all lines or mixtures of lines. Finding Legbars now should not be hard. I am just a small farm hatchery and I know I sold over 500 of them last year.
I hope to do better this year. I have been showing them at a couple shows and seem to be mustering up some interest.
You can get them from a few of the large hatcheries. I know Meyers and MyPetCHicken have them.
By the way, people like me are a lot cheaper than GFF or the large hatcheries,
The whites are a recessive gene that has popped up from these imported lines . Kind of like a red headed child popping up in a family . Likely the recessive white has been there since the breed was created . Cold tolerance is good . However the rooster's comb will freeze in very cold weather .I'm looking into purchasing some White Legbars with the Hubby's consent and have a few questions
1. What do you consider a reasonable price for hatching eggs? I'm considering $60 for a dozen and that is from NPIP certified and includes shipping.
2. How are Whites created? Are they a cross of some sort?
3. What is their cold tolerance?
Thank you for your time

No just recessive . There is also a dominant white gene . Legbars do not have the dominant white . Blue is a dominant gene .Ahh, so does this mean the white gene is somewhat unstable, similar to a blue gene?
