abwsco Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 Am going to sound silly but do cream legabrs get taller and thinner as they get their proper floppy combs and fluffy headgear. Do they get them as they go from "teenagers" to "adults" I'm asking as I'm not sure if Mo is getting taller and thinner and now I've got that idea planted in my head I'm getting paranoid about it. I've also no chance of picking her up to see if she feels thinner as she's a typical flighty legbar and we can't even walk up to her without her panicking and running off. Should say that she's eating and drinking well from what I can see and she's also still laying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louisdog Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Mine were always quite lean and upright, a bit like my leghorn hybrid. Could you try handling her after she has gone to roost, perhaps? Mine used to be flighty, as is the leghorn, but once I have picked them up they tend to be ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Ours is quite lean and leggy as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abwsco Posted November 9, 2008 Author Share Posted November 9, 2008 Thanks both Am not sure now if she's moulting so that's also why she might look a bit thinner. What a time to moult Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
