chick wiggle Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 I know, I thought they were little horses too I took my male legbar to the breeder and came home with this little cutie. She is a Shetland and lays blue eggs. Well 80% so fingers crossed Not great pics im sorry, i had to take them on my phone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chick wiggle Posted March 30, 2010 Author Share Posted March 30, 2010 I had never heard of them either, apparently the story goes, the Spanish Armada landed at the Shetland Isles, and they had legbar type chickens which escaped and err ahem with the shetlands chickens and produced these. Nice story any way eh? I asked Redwing about them before i got her too, oh font of all knowledge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
