How many people have buff Orpingtons

[Sweet T]

I have my first two buff orpingtons ever, they are about 6 weeks old. They are mean as firecrackers. "Strawberry" and "Cake" (which actually turned into a pullet and a cockerel). They just eat a lot of food and peck all the other chicks that get in their way, usually pulling out the other chicks feathers. They're fixing to be orpington stew.

My 3 BO eggs that were in the incubator just hatched 2 yesterday and 1 today.

Hope they are pullets.

They're the best breed if you're looking for a good pet!

Here's my Tali!




They LOVE cameras!

My Omelette loves the camera too! She can't get enough of it!

Yes, 5 hens. Chuck, Belle, Lilly, Emma, and Daisy. A great part of any flock!

I agree BO's are amazing. I have two Princess and Teddy plus three baby Gold Partridge Orpingtons and a Lemon Orpington.
I found this video on YouTube a while ago. It is a must see for BO lovers.

I have 5. 4 hens and a roo. He is about a month older than the hens which are 4 months (16-17 weeks). If I am correct in my understanding, they will start laying around 20 weeks. Hope so, I am ready to start collecting eggs. I also have 2 Barred rocks and 2 Rhode Island Red hens. I still like the BOs the most.

Hi just an FYI my BO didn't lay until she was six months old. However she has laid nearly every day since. Such lovely hens
