Barred Plymouth Rock was chosen for its barring gene, which is crucial for the auto sexing characteristic, and the Brown Leghorn was selected for its good egg-laying abilities and hardiness. Araucana genetic was introduced into the mix for their *blue egg laying trait and crest.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCream Legbars are considered autosexing, meaning you can reliably determine the sex of the chicks at hatch based on their coloration. In this breed, male and female chicks exhibit distinct markings that allow for easy sexing. However the accuracy of auto sexing quality can heavily rely on the quality of the line.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThey are known for their friendly and sociable nature. Active and inquisitive, they thrive in free-range environments where they can forage and explore. While they can be trained from a young age and enjoy human interaction, they are not as naturally cuddly as breeds like Orpingtons. While they generally tolerate various temperatures, they are less adept at coping with cold compared to heat. Being a lightweight and lean breed, they benefit from coops with sheltered areas during harsh weather conditions, and due to their tendency to be flighty, high fences may be necessary. They generally are a great flock member for mixed flocks as they are docile flock members towards other chooks.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Chuckles Chickens","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42915212001355,"sku":null,"price":50.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/8518\/6891\/files\/339DF452-074A-45A8-821E-4D285A2092E7.jpg?v=1788499730"},{"product_id":"light-sussex-fertile-eggs-each","title":"Light Sussex Fertile Eggs 1 Dozen (12 Eggs)","description":"\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMature weight is under 2.7-3.2kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFast growing – first egg around 7-9 months \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLarge– Extra large sized pastel cream coloured eggs, expected to lay around 200-300 eggs per year.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBroodiness – moderate to high \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaintenance – Low\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlightiness - Low\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"3969\" data-end=\"3985\"\u003ePlease Note:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Hatching eggs are a natural product.
