Langshans

A Black Langshan cockerel

This long legged, feather-legged bird appears in both black and white varieties and has dark brown eyes.

I admit to a lot of confusion, but one day I'll figure it out -- there seem to be just plain Langshans, Croad Langshans and German Langshans. When I figure out the differences, I'll add them here.

That's my Langshan cock "Bruce" standing near my Salmon Faverolles cock "Simon" -- I included this to show how much taller Langshans are then your average large chickens
