Cream Legbars are a slender and very elegant breed the males have cream necks, salmon chests and grey barred bodies as well as a small feathered crest behind the comb. Females have cream necks, salmon chests and grey barred bodies as well as a small feathered crest behind the comb. This breed is an active breed and a frugal eater it is unusual for them to go broody. some so called legbars do not fulfil the breeds stander because they have lost the dilute cream gene. The most amazing thing about this bread is that they are alto sexing as when they hatch females have distinctive dark and light stripes down their bodies where the males have a lighter all over colour and a distinctive yellow spot on their heads. This allows breeders to be more efficient and selecting the females they need rather than rasing unnecessary amounts of cockerels. This birds are resisted on the RBST as they are quite rare.
