Shadow on a sheet
Lakenvelders are one of my favorite chickens. They are just a fine looking bird to have foraging about the homestead. They are not the most productive chicken in the world, but sometimes beauty has value too. Dad had a few when I was growing up and I have always loved them. You can see a painting of them

I wish mine looked as pretty as that picture! They are nice though, if a little flighty. Ours have a tendency to want to lay outside the coop, in secret known-only-to-chickens places, although they are not broody.
