questions: asking about layer breeds of  poultry 
 answers:  leghorns were brought to the states from italy back in the 1800s and have made the perfect backyard chicken ever since.

eggs: they should lay around 250 eggs per year. these eggs will be white and medium sized.

colour: they are one of the most unique breeds going, with a full white body and a large thick red comb.

character: whilst they would still make an ideal pick for a beginner, anyone looking to tame their chickens shouldn’t choose leghorns as they are known for being shy and hard to tame.
