I only have up to December with me, left the other 2 at home after Christmas so not much help here Can you describe it/post a photo Sure someone'll know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quickcluck Posted January 24, 2011 Author Share Posted January 24, 2011 It only came through the door yesterday! Will try and post a pic in the morning. But I'm thinking some sort of hybrid. Lovely tho....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweety Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 They are very pretty hens. I hope someone can tell us what they are! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 They are pretty - Cream Legbar but a bit more flighty than hybrids when young, said to calm down as they mature and coloured eggs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quickcluck Posted January 25, 2011 Author Share Posted January 25, 2011 Thanks plum. I knew someone would know. Now I know why they look like my jasmines! They are beautiful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweety Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Are you sure that they are Cream Legbars, Plum? I can't see a crest on any of the hens in the photo and they don't look like my CL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plum Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 They are beautiful Tweety it was only a guess but I can see quiffs. Why not email the magazine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skye Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Ohhhh feeling broody! They are gorgeous. They do have 'up do's if you look closely Tweety. Morehens is terrible at this time of year. I'm steeling myself! skye x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Look like Cream Legbar crosses to me Maybe Skyline hybrids? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweety Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 I think my CL must have an exceptionally bouffant hairdo and tiny comb, because those beautiful girls in the photo look much more like the ones in than my girl does. So well done Plum, and apologies for questioning your judgement! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 only a guess, I was nearly right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heidi-Hi Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Yip yip yip! Looks just like my Annabel. And she lays a beautiful blue egg. Definately one of my favourite breeds, but quite fligthy and very quick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
