    *Buff Orpington Thread!*

    I started the season with 15 hens and two roosters, 4 buffs and 11 barred rocks, Unfortunately this year a fox and a racoon brought me down to 7, but my 2 buffs went broody and I now have 4 new baby chicks, this round I had to name them, Lucy, Ethel, Laverne & Shirley, hoping another 5 will...

    I picked up 4 buffs at an auction last summer, 2 of the four are older hens and one had an extremely pale comb (sooo, her name is "Pale Face") we added some mineral water and some diatomasceous earth to her diet and now she's as red as the others

    Thanks for the info on the buff roo, I may have to get one, I like the hens having a rooster around to help protect them. I'm in the Sumter area

    even with just 5 birds laying at this time, we have excess, (by the way I hate eggs) but the hubby and family eat them. I also have co-workers and friends that take the extras and every now and then they donate some feed for the cause.

    Just got my new batch of RIR's, 12 cuties. I have 6 grown, 4 Buff Orpingtons and 2 RIR. One RIR rooster, but I think his new name is stir-fry since he attacks me about weekly

    I have 12 new chicks, got them on Thursday, a few have dirty butts, is it safe to wash them being so young?

    Question, I have 4 Buff Hens and 1 Rhoadie plus a Rhodie rooster, My hens were laying in the coop, but now they are finding other places. They do free range, so is this just something to live with?

    What is my rooster doing?

    I had one Roo that just got meaner and meaner no matter what I did, He went in the cook pot. The Roo I have now ambushed me one day and then the next, he attacked me straight on, kicked (not hard) back like 3 times and then pushed him to the ground and held him there, So far he's been good...
