Solution (By Examveda Team)

The average per year egg production of Leghorn fowl is 200 - 250.
The Leghorn is a breed of chicken originating in Tuscany, in central Italy. Birds were first exported to North America in 1828 from the Tuscan port city of Livorno, on the western coast of Italy.
Leghorns are good layers of white eggs, laying an average of 200 - 250 per year and sometimes reaching 300, with a weight of at least 55 g. White Leghorns have been used to create highly productive egg-laying hybrids for commercial and industrial operations.
