		Replicated groups of Local and White Leghorn baby chickens were subjected to scavenging, scavenging plus supplementation, and intensive feeding in completely randomized design, for a study period of 20 weeks.

		The superior health status and rate of survival of Local compared to White Leghorn chickens, kept under scavenging conditions with or without supplementation, is in agreement with the report of AACMC (1984) that Local chickens are well adapted to the local environment and considered to be disease resistant.

	Leghorns
		When you see a rooster in a painting or an advertisement it is usually a slim-bodied bird with long sickle (tail) feathers and a large single comb: the typical male Leghorn.
		Leghorns, especially the White ones, are prodigious egg-layers and broodiness (the desire to hatch eggs) has almost completely been bred out of them.
		The light weight of this Mediterranean breed (males reach 6 pounds and females 4 1/2) makes it a poor choice if you are seeking a bird to provide meat for the table, although excess males can be used as fryers.

		Foghorn Leghorn first appeared in the Warner Bros. cartoon Walky Talky Hawky (released August 31, 1946), which was directed by Robert McKimson.
		More often, Foghorn was pitted against either the farmer's dog (called George P. Dog on model sheets, tho the only time the name was used on-screen was on the Bugs Bunny TV show) or a fellow denizen of the henhouse.
		So when the Warner Bros. animation unit was phased out, he was reduced to between-cartoon fillers on TV and an occasional gig in a commercial.
