Title: White stars vs Leghorns
Post by: ricardodba on September 08, 2015, 10:53:49 am

Hi,

I have 2 white stars...which i think are beautiful looking birds.

I'm wondering what the difference is between them and the leghorns...does anyone know?

Cheers.

White Stars are pure White Leghorns bred specifically for high production of eggs, rather than to meet the required English breed standards Ricardodba. At least that's what I have read on several occasions.
