Auto sexing Cream Legbars sport a spiff on their head and will deliver blue eggs. The unique crele barring feathers mix in various shades of browns and black all over their body camouflage them from likely predators. Chicks are autosexing at hatch meaning that you can immediately tell the females from the males. All females have a dark brown squirrel coloration and males are lighter with a white dot on their heads. Perfect for families that don't want to get emotionally attached and discover their chick is a rooster.
A starter pullet gives families a jump start on chicken ownership, allows families to skip the need to invest in a heated brooder, and there is less wait time for eggs. Selecting a specific hatch date of a starter pullet is your commitment to pick her up within (6) days of order placement on your choice of Saturday between 8am-5pm or Monday between 5pm-6:30pm . Make sure you select the hatch date desired to ensure your starter pullet is the age you want. For further guidance on what age they can begin to be accimated to outside tempatures, read the section on Considerations of Starter Pullets prior to purchasing.

History:
If you are looking for a chicken that captures the imagination, auto-sexing, and provides sky blue eggs, this girl is a good choice.Developed in the 1930s by renown geneticist R.C. Punnet. To appreciate his work, you need to understand the difference between common Sex-linked chicks produced in commercial hatcheries. Sex-linking only works on the first generation of chicks. The difference with the autosexing Cream Legbar is the ability to produce visually sexable chicks generation after generation. Their unique attractive crest is almost as gorgeous as the blue eggs they gift 4-5 times a week. They are heat and cold tolerant.
