popular cross for people wanting the tons 
in meat and egg production. By breed. 
ing Australorp males to Leghorn hens 
we can give you a heavy cross which not

less feed than some other varieties, and 
your laying flock mortality will be much 
less in most cases. 
HAMP-LEGHORN CROSS

erel (the best layer of heavy breeds) and 
the White Leghorn Hen (the best layer 
of the light breeds), this outstanding 
HAMP-LEG cross naturally gives out- 
standing egg production. IN ADDI- 
TION, they are top choice for broilers 
being yellow skin and maturing fast 
with less feed. One of the best. 
LEG ROCK CROSS

White Leghorn males with some of our 
White Rock females we are producing 
the Leg Rock crosses. Combining all the 
good points of these two great breeds 
gives you a bird that.has all the size 
of the White Rocks and the egg laying 
ability of the White Leghorns.
