    Gender for my black Orpington so I can sell it!

    You all have been so helpful! Thanks! Can you help me on my Lavender? I posted a few weeks ago (probably too early) and everyone said Pullet. But her comb and wattles are so red now! Help me! She is so sweet, please still be a girl!! 11wks. Hackles shot:

    Gender for my black Orpington so I can sell it!

    I want to sell this chicken because I have one too many for this coop. S/he is a black split lavender Orpington. It was kind of runty and feathered late but now seems a little bigger and comb much darker/redder that the lavender hatch mate. Previous posts have guessed girl, but I want to double...

    Pullet or roo? Lavender Orpington and Easter Egger

    It's been a couple of weeks. New picture with my split lavender black Orpington. I was sure it was a rooster--feathered out slower, but now I don't know. Roo or Pullet? I really hope my lavender lady is still Pullet. Thanks for your replies.

    Help, I think I doomed my lav chick!

    I am a newbie. Yesterday I got six chicks. 4 from a feed store and 2 pretty lavender orphs from a local breeder. The orphs were 2 days old. When I got the lav babies home I noticed one had what I thought was pasty butt. I started wiping it with a warm washcloth and it started bleeding! It looked...

I've been obsessively researching breeds and coops and all that stuff. For some reason I NEED to have a Lavender Orpington. Do any of you have any experience working...
