    Dead Orloff

    Yeah! I think he ended up in a slight angle luckily because I think my mom left him for dead a couple hours until my brother came home to get him. I'm just thankful I got the call he was alive I was NOT expecting it haha!

    I'm so relieved! I haven't been home through all of this so it's been a nightmare. Just hoping he's completely okay and that it doesn't happen again ;-;

    Omg so when my brother went to get him he was alive. He wasnt moving or responding at all when my mom was trying to get a response. Not sure if he was passed out or what but he seems fine now? It's all so bizzare but I guess he got stuck in a position that wasn't life threatening. He wasn't...

    It looks like it's just through. But there's electric fence surrounding to protect them from bears and foxes ect because they are in the north Georgia mountains with lots of predators, so I'm not sure anything could have reached him easily.

    He was getting slightly picked on by his sons and we were in the process of separating them. It was never anything too intense but maybe he was running from them and got stuck? It's all hypotheticals but it seems to be the most likely scenario. It's so wild he got stuck in that position though...

    Thank you. He was truly the most gentle and protective rooster. I loved him so much! Here's one of him alive and sadly the ones found of him :(

    I found my orloff rooster dead upside down 2 feet up off the ground with both of his feet in the chicken wire. I'm wondering how this could have happened? It seems so bizzare. Has anyone else had this issue with chicken wire? I have pics of it but I'm not sure if I should post them. I'm heartbroken

    Russian Orloff Mixes!

    The copper maran mix is gorgeous but he’s picking on my original rooster so I might have to rehome him :(

    Russian Orloff Mixes!

    So my Russian Orloff rooster mixed with 3 of my chickens and my broody silkie/Easter egger mix hatched them in the spring. They turned out so pretty! Haven’t seen a lot of Orloff mixes posted here so thought I’d share some pics. Ended up with a Delaware / Orloff who is huge, Copper Maran /...

    It’s so hard to stop! It was really fun letting my broody hen hatch some and seeing how they turned out :)

    Mixed babies!

    They turned out so pretty! Two roos (Delaware/ Orloff and copper maran / Orloff) and a hen (Easter egger Orloff) I’ll get some better pics of the copper maran but the Roos ended up HUGE. The Delaware mix is so beautiful with brown and black speckles. They all have the cutest lil beaks. I’ll try...

    Mixed babies!

    So these babies are the first that my broody silkie/easter egger hen hatched and I’m wondering how crossbreeding works. The father is a Russian orloff. The hen breeds in my flock currently are: buff laced polish, silkie/ Easter egger that lays blue eggs, copper maran, Delaware, sapphire gems and...

    3 mo Russian Orloff

    Awesome thank you so much! I got her and the orloff as straight run so it seems I got lucky with most of them. Do you own orloffs? I heard the males don’t crow as often but I’ll wait and see how it goes haha. It’s weird he doesn’t have spurs!

    He’s a very peaceful sweet and quirky roo. I do have the no rooster city rule though, so I do have a home for him for when he starts crowing. I heard orloffs can be quiet birds though 🥲
