Renee ~ that is very interesting about the comb angle.

Thank you all for posting.

If anyone in CT is interested in a beautiful hand-raised very tame & affectionate Black Orpington Roo feel free to send me a message.

Hey, did the chick end up being a hen or a roo? I have a 7 week blue orp that looks really similar -- it's so hard to tell!
