    P or C? 5 Week Old Buff Orpington

    Her comb seems larger to me too. Don’t all Buff Orpington’s have red combs?

    I had no idea they could have spurs. Thank you for the picture.

    P or C? 5 Week Old Buff Orpington

    My 5 week old buff has developed little nubs on her legs which makes me nervous! We live in the city and can’t have roosters :( Any advice is helpful!

    Baby Orpington Aggressive or Protective?

    I have a thermometer under the lamp area and it stays between 88-90 degrees. The temp is perfect for their age :) I didn’t think the large bin was too small for 4 chickens! I’ll see about building some boxes together for more space.

    Baby Orpington Aggressive or Protective?

    I just posted below 2 pictures of my setup for the girls. I have been putting the little one in the tiny tractor supply box if it keeps pecking. Just for a little and then re-introduce her. I’ve noticed the baby buff Orpington isn’t doing as much antagonizing but now the baby australorp is...

    Baby Orpington Aggressive or Protective?

    Thank you for the support! Their set ups are right next to each other so they can smell and hear each other. All are in our garage since it’s insulated and I can comfortably control the temp. I put wire over the chicks at night but during the day I remove it and let big girl jump in and see them...

    Baby Orpington Aggressive or Protective?

    I guess I'll just get to it :( -Picture is of her getting scratches until she fell asleep last night <3 We ordered 4 chicks (2 silkies and 2 orpingtons) from my pet chicken and they were gorgeous! A couple days ago a neighbor dog dug into our yard and killed both Silkies and our Splash...

    Mystery Feed Store Chick

    Hi all! This evening I picked up some more chicks at a feed store. There was a bin of pullet Buff Orpintons and Mixed Reds with a random tiny chick hiding under the other girls. The manager said she was a mystery chick and they had no idea how she got in there. So, of course I bought her! She...

    Blue or Lavender Orpingtons?

    Hi! This is my first experience with chickens and I ordered 2 blue/black/splash Orpingtons from my pet chicken. I told them I was ok with substitutes as long as they were Orpingtons. When they came they had clear bands on their foot indicating they are a Black/Lavender Orpington. I’m so confused...
