    Hopefully hens......

    Well, we got to the breeder and they had a lot of chickens, rabbits, and ducks of all sizes and breeds. We picked out a few hopeful hens and got a really great price. Plus they are all very sweet. They are in a holding coop for now. Let me know what you think, hen or roo. . Worst case, we will...

    Going to get some Hens, help needed.

    We had recently found that our Buff Orpington pullets were not what they claimed to be. We have found someone who has 4month old buffs and we were going to pick some up today. This is probably a crazy question, but what is the easiest way to tell if they are hens at 4months of age or older...

    Is This A Buff Orpington?

We have a beautiful buff rooster 6mo old...

    Is This A Buff Orpington?

    The legs appear to be somewhat yellow as well. They're legs are a little bit darker than their beaks. Of the four chicks two have red cones and the other two have light colored cones not nearly as big. Thanks for your help trying to figure out what they are. We got them from tractor supply and...

    Is This A Buff Orpington?

    This is my first post and I am very excited to be here. Me and my wife received 4 baby hens that were suppose to be buff orpingtons, but I think they may be white orpies. They are only 5 weeks old and are covered in feathers. However the only color other than white is from dirt. We did get a 6...
