Post by: Guest on January 08, 2008, 09:56:57 AM
 Olá members ,

 There is a breed from UK that lay 200 - 220 blue shelled eggs per year . They are a bit bigger than Ameraucana .
 What are the differences and similar characteristics ? Opinions are welcome .

I\'ve heard of them, they are usually referred to as Cream Legbars, they are a mix of Leghorn, Barred Rocks, EEs and something crested.  I don\'t think they are all that attractive.

Some of us have been aware of the existence of the Cream Legbars for at least 20 years.   About the only similarity I can see is that of egg color.   Shape, comb, lobes, feather color(s),  head characteristics, etc.  all are different.
