Description
White Legbar are a homestead favorite here. Sweet, medium sized birds that are easily handleable from hatch forward– they are some of our most sweetly amicable birds through every developmental phase. Pure white, hens will develop the trademark crest/mohawk as young pullets, developing a deep red comb and wattle just before starting to lay light cloud blue, medium sized eggs with no tint of green. They are content foraging or in the safe confinement of a coop and a run and are pretty prolific and hardy layers.
Sometimes called a ‘sport’ version of the Legbar, White Legbar actually breed true and are a more rare double recessive version of the gold-barred Cream Legbar, carrying forward the autosexing feature found in its Legbar heritage. This line of White Legbar can be sexed relatively easily at hatch. Males have a bright white dot on their head and a darker yellow down, but we notice that females can also have slightly less noticeable white on their head too. When crossed with a solid male with brown pigment depositing genes (i.e. Black Copper Marans, Welsummer) they will provide sexlinked offspring, where the males will have a white dot on their head at hatch.
