Eggs Langshans eggs are brown eggs. Langshan hens are setters on Langshan eggs..
Meat Langshans have white skin. A general purpose fowl for the production of meat and eggs. The general shape of the Langshan makes them better suited to roaster and capon use than as fryers. Market weight is 6.5 to 8 lbs at 24+ weeks.
Standard Weights: Cock-9-1/2 pounds; hen-7-1/2 pounds; cockerel-8 pounds; pullet-6-1/2 pounds.
Shape Langshan chickens appear to be very tall, with long legs and tails carried at a high angle. Long legs and narrow body conformation leave much to be desired as a meat bird by today's Standards.
History: Langshan chickens enjoyed considerable popularity in the U.S. during the latter part of the 19th century. However, today Langshans are primarily an exhibition fowl. Langshans originated in China and are considered one of our oldest breeds. There seem to be just plain Langshans, Croad Langshans and German Langshans. When I figure out the differences I'll add them here. German Langshans seem to be clean-legged.
