3 brown.

Looking at a hatchery catalog online today - the dead chicken wasn't a leghorn as they lay white eggs. Must have been a white rock.

I'm still thinking 8 rhode island reds, 4 barred rocks. Might go for 12 Cornish X Rocks for meat production - 6-10 weeks from chick to 3-4 pound dressed chicken depending on sex. Broad breasted with meaty legs.

What's a henweigh?
