Toronto Man Breeds Chickens With Colored Eggs
O P Johnston of West Hill Ontario displays Barnacanas at the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair. The chickens have no combs or wattles and lay colored eggs in shades such as chocolate green khaki grey olive and taupe. Johnston credits Chilean Ancona and Dutch Barnaveida roots and says future egg color and feather color can be forecast and controlled. He notes frost resistance and cites a May June test of 58 eggs per hen in 61 days. He advocates a distinctly Canadian poultry type.
