Sorry can't do even close to 150........... but:Originally posted by Menelaus View PostAlright then, smart arse,
- go on and name the 150 types without resort to Google 
rooster - is a Cock/male Chicken - not a breed
bantam - is a denomination of size ie Small Variety
Foghorn Leghorn - Is a - I said - Is a Rhode Island Red
Free-range - Means they have (slightly) more than 1sq ft and "access" to outside ("access" might only mean that there is a single 9" door in the corner of a Barn the size of Heathrow)
Battery - Means they have (slightly) more than 1sq ft - with no access out of thier cage)
Corn-fed - Means that a certain %age of the tulip they feed them might be something like "corn"
I have Scots Dumpy's and "Laying hybrids" - They were "rescued" from Batteries when thier "Commercial Value" fell ie They couldn't keep laying an egg every single day without becoming ill even after they pumped Anti-Bios and other tulip into them.....
The Scots Dumpy's look a bit like Marans but thier legs are a bit thicker and thier eggs are pale (as opposed to Marans who lay very dark eggs)Comment
