Lavender Orpington Thread

My very sweet roo, Hennessy. Who says chickens can't be endearing?

He IS cute. Like mine, he also has a little food on his beak. It must be a roo thing. The hens are always pecking at his beak.

Congrats on the new layer. That's so egg-citing!

This thread made me fall in love with lavender orpingtons! I bought some hatching eggs and this is what I got....what do you think? Are they lav orps?
Here is 1. Chocolate 2. Toffee and 3. Penguin

This is what mine looked like as chicks. Im thinking yours may have something else in the mix.

Adorable and your look like lav orp chicks on Google....I'm wondering if they are chocolate orpingtons...the first 2?

My 2 Lav Orps were also easy to identify - even in the incubator. You may have something else.
If you got a couple rare choc Orps, that's awesome. I've never even seen one in person.
