Old Cotswold Legbar?[edit]

Producers Clarence Court market their blue eggs as Old Costwold Legbar. It seems the breed was developed 30 years ago by Philip Lee-Woolf in the Cotswolds: [1]. Is this a recognised breed? Or is it really just the Cream Legbar in disguise: [2]? Martinevans123 (talk) 13:36, 17 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Weight Measurments?[edit]

Most poultry pages I've looked at have a "vital statistics" pane on the right listing weight. I haven't seen whether it's described as the live weight or the dressed weight however. Especially in the meat poultry this is an important factor to be considered. What is the process to have that info clarified? Right now one relies on text clues and checking the references to determine which is represented.
