Orpington (Buff)-319

I like everything about it except how it looks right now. I know it lays decently. It is a great part of my great waterfowl flock.

Indian Runner

First, watching a runner duck run is awesome. They can find their own food. They aren't like pekins in water. Mine haven't started laying but I heard their decent.

Rouen

Its not as fat and slow as a pekin, but its not frail either. I want a mallard but I don't want a flying bird. The rouen is great for that.

They are my calmest birds and are easiest to catch. They eat less than Pekins. I heard they also lay well, but mine are younger.

Hey Don, I still have my OLD Black Orp bantam hen that came from your stock. She is terrific broody mom and I hope she will stick around a long time yet. She is better than ever as she grows older! I love her to pieces and her quality still very good, never fell apart except during molting time.

Sadly her blue sister didn't survive the attack one night..she was another of your beauties from your stock.

Wished you hadn't stop or quit but maybe a chance to get back again??

I haven't stopped, just slowed down. I still have the std buffs and black bantams, ans I also have a few choc orp bantams to play with. Those little blacks will start laying around 4and 1/2 months and be ready to set at 6 months. Do you raise Southdowns?
