Baby Chicks: Cream Legbar Female Reviews

4.5 Rating 105 Reviews
Lol this girl is a nut, so sweet and so jumpy. She's always pacing at the back of the coop like she thinks it's going to open a magic door to Narnia, even after she lays her egg she paces. She wants so badly to be friendly but her nerves just can't take it . I love her eggs but she's kinda cray. Btw they started out green and now are baby blue, so pretty.

We loved our CLB. She was. Sweet, gentle girl. Somewhat flighty in the beginning, always the last tomcome in at night, and certainly the smallest of our flock of six hens, but she ended up being one of our best girls. Beautiful blue eggs! Sweet personality. Unfortunately, she died before she was even six months old, most likely from Egg Yolk Peritonitis. She was wayyyy to young to have this. Many chicken blogs talk about hatchery birds more commonly having these types of issues. I don’t know if that’s the case, but we were sooo sad to lose her so soon. I’d love to have another one.

I have never bought live chicks via mail order before. I was wary but everything went very smoothly. The chicks are healthy and lively. As for the breed...I have had these before. They are very docile and curious birds. Very enjoyable to watch.

I have two Cream Legbars that are both timid and bottom of the pecking order. One has crinkled up toes and not very bright. She is the only hen that comes in the roost after dark. I imagine to not get picked on. Both hens blue eggs shells are very brittle. I tried different supplements without any difference. My other girls are very tame and social. I recall paying $32 each for them to boot... I will not purchase this breed again.

We became first-time chicken owners in July with just three chicks. For the first several weeks, our Cream Legbar was by far the sweetest. She would close her eyes as she lay in the palm of your hand, and let you pet her. As she reached her "teenage" weeks though she became super flighty and skittish...almost 180 degree turn from the beginning. She's the only one that we've had to rescue after jumping/flying into the neighbors yard. However, just recently at 23 weeks she was the first one to give us an egg...beautiful light blue. Since she started laying, she has calmed down substantially, and is much more friendly.

My Cream Legbars from My Pet Chicken are the only birds in my flock laying right now in December! The blue eggs are beautiful, and I love their little crests. My Pet Chicken took great care to answer all my (many!) questions regarding the shipping process. You can tell they really want their customers to succeed in caring for chickens! You have a repeat customer here.

Lucy frequently walks around with her crest of feathers upright. This gives her the look of an exotic bird instead of a chicken. She is the smallest of the flock, but plenty feisty and always manages to get her share of treats. Chasing my Yorkies around is her favorite pastime and she loves having something smaller than her, lol. She lays the most beautiful sky blue eggs in the next box, not the yard. Very pleased that Lucy is part of my flock!

My Cream Legbars from My Pet Chicken are the only girls in my flock that are laying in these shorter fall days. My egg basket is so blue and beautiful!
