My Blue Orp Cockeral - Mosby - Age 23 weeks - Sorry Dial Up

Mosby is a growing boy but I know he isn't anywhere near finished growing. He is one of the pair of blue orps I was given by Tuffoldhen.

My husband has told me in the last couple weeks he has heard Mosby belt out a truely sensational crow. Sadly, I have not heard it. Then today when I was out in the barn my boy belted a perfect crow. Again and again and again! It was music to my ears. I had never heard his crowing voice. The only sounds I have heard is his clucking and cooing and other soft noises. I have heard him growl and grunt but never a real crow until today.

Here's my boy - Bonnie just wasn't having any photos today. She side stepped, moved, darted away or put her head down or flipped up her rump at me!













There is a cutting crew chewing down trees in the path of electric lines on our road. The noise was deafening. Mosby wouldn't cooperate for photos so we had to take him in the barn and get him settled down. Every loud noise and his hackles rose and he puffed up.

All of the pullet from this weeks hatch are intended to be his girls. Let's hope I get more than 1. LOL

That is a hansome bird. I just started back with chickens, buff orpingtons. I want some of those now.

Prissy, he is one handsome young man. You can be proud of him. Sandy did good, hugh?

Very handsome fella... I just adore the blue ones!

<--------- Going to be a looker like his father!...Handsome fellow there MP

He is still a baby at almost 23 weeks but he is HUGE. It just makes me pleasantly happy to watch him.

Ms Prissy, what a handsome fellow you have there... He is something to be very proud of..
I have black and blue orps in bator now (dz each) sure hope I end up with a blue boy that looks that good...

Gorgeous boy!! I was just looking at pictures yesterday of Tuffoldhen's gorgeous roo and dang, I am in love. Another breed I think I am going to have to get. My husband will be so happy!!

Beautiful! Blues are my favorite.

Very nice bird!

I want some blue opringtons one day.
