User Reviews: Orpington
Cons: Can't think of any cons.
I used to have Buff Orps years ago and now I have Lavender Orps. I love these chickens. They are friendly, great egg layers, beautiful to look at, lay year round even in cold climates, easy keepers and both meat and egg chickens.
Cons: none
I love my Orpingtons. My Bonnie Blue lays these huge brown eggs. They have been a very pleasureful breed, very sweet and friendly.

Jubilee Orpington Hen
Breed Details: Developed as a dual purpose breed, Orpington's make fair table fowl and are excellent winter layers of large brown eggs. They have very laid back personalities and make great family pets. The Buffs are especially good in this regard. |
