Description
The Leghorn chickens are prolific egg layers that are capable of laying over 320 white eggs per year. This exceptional egg laying ability is reinforced by an unmatched feed to egg ratio making them very popular among both backyard flocks and free range production!
Although gentle in nature they are very attentive and rather shy which makes them flighty in comparison to other hybrids.
Leghorns are smaller than most other hybrids but they lay large white eggs. Because of their smaller frame, they consume less feed which in turn increases their feed to egg ratio.
