I have had Cream Legbar hens and rosters for 4 years. I have had about 6 other breeds going back for 38 years. In the video you just saw none appears as good quality Cream Legbars, one rooster excepted. At about 6 months of age I get about 4 eggs a week per hen. Color is a nice blue or green/blue, size is medium. Their temperament is "shy" as compared to a Buff Orpington, which is very friendly. There are varieties and strains of this breed. They have been heat tolerant here in Southern California.

This chicken loves shoulder time like a pirate parrot. They sound like old lady peeps too

[@sharoncontini3284]

I find the different egg colours interesting. When I retire I am going to make a garden and try to have different hens.

This video was very informative. It was helpful to have a better understanding of my 7 week Rosalita ❤ thank you

[@kickassgarden]

Thank you for the informative content.

So cute I never heard about this breed

[@eliseville]

But, if you took HS biology, you likely studied "Punnett Squares", the geneticist's basic graphing tool to determine the %chances of different parental characteristics! I adore my delightfully adventurous little huge-blue-egger Crested Cream Legbar "Melody" even just a tad more for her famous "inventor"! And I won't clip her wings, since she only goes alone over the day-fence and always under the better tree-cover, into our chicken-safe backyard. (If the others followed her, I would definitely rethink that strategy for the whole flock's safety.) She is quite wary of hawks, and seems to be able to get herself just as easily back home.

Great birds I got a crossed one. Real good breed.

[@windmuser]

Thank you.

Wow! Live and learn. I was told universally that Legbars were a result of Barred Plymouth Rock-White Leghorn cross.

Ja and Araucana this three breeds.

One of my chicks is a cream legbar. Along with 2 blue rocks, and a golden cuckoo Maran.

[@FarmallFanatic]

Got hatching eggs

[@shanice0403]

Just got my first 2 chicks today ❤

[@charlesfoster8814]

I got two also about the same time you did. In the above video mine look like the ones with the black top knot and almost no comb. One is real friendly the other not so much.

my creme leg bar that has just died of liver failure she was a very beautiful sweet bird loved being pet and cuddled she would be a very expenive bird if we would have sold her

[@kensingtonmeister5692]

You mentioned that temperament was possibly linked to the strain of bird- which strain is more docile?

[@eliseville]

My Crested Cream Legbar "Melody" and Plymouth Barred Rock "Pia" are the friendliest & easiest to handle at all times, but my Light Brahma "M'Lady" is the queen of poise. keeping all her sisters much mellower than if she were not there. M'Lady even protects my bottom-of-the-flock Ameraucana "ChiChi" from some of the endless harassment she receives from the others. Of my 8 "docile" breeds & crosses the heaviest hen-peckers are my Olive Egger "Livvie" and substantially less, my Blue Copper Marans "Bluezy" (who I was surprised to discover constantly tries to live up to her songstress name.) With enough space and distractions, my lovely flock seems quite healthy and happy, and I can tell exactly who laid which egg, too!

Mating Season?

[@IAMGiftbearer]

What do their eggs taste like?

[@periwinkle1979]

Like regular eggs

[@MoniqueHowell-C-B-F-TINKS]

Vorwerk vid please

[@jollyroger5646]

So basically, a high maintenance crapshoot with low return except for the 'only kid on the blok' syndrome?

[@localbuzzkill1760]

How did you gather that from this video? Genuinely curious

[@jollyroger5646]

@@localbuzzkill1760 doesn't do well in mixed flock, keeps soft spot longer, depending on strain you could have flighty or docile. Beautiful birds, but not for me. Just my take. Not in video, egg prodution about 150-200/year. Also, that was just me being, well, my name!😉🤣 Have a blessed day!
