    My Orpington Died Suddenly!

    I knew there were a lot of possibilities, but a general idea of things to watch for is helpful, so thank you for the feed back. I probably should have kept the body for examination, but I did not want to risk keeping her around. She was walking normal and was laying fine. SO it could have been...

    My Orpington Died Suddenly!

    Thank you. No we incinerated her in fear of contagion. Rigor mortis set in quickly that is the only thing we noticed.

    Are Orpingtons considered bantams?

    Some posts I see say orpington bantams. My orpingtons are pretty big to be bantams so is there a difference between orpingtons and orpington bantams?

    Can barred rocks and orpingtons be together?

    Ok. Yeah my orps aren't very docile. The one is in charge and doesn't take lightly to some things. Thanks for your input.

    Can barred rocks and orpingtons be together?

    I have 7 buff orpingtons right now and next year plan to get more chickens. I hear barred rocks are great egg layers, but tend to be bossy to docile chickens. If I raised them as chicks around the orpingtons would they be less bossy to the orps once they matured?

    How many eggs do you get weekly? What do you do with the extra eggs?

    I have 7 hens and they are almost 5 months and one hen is already laying but they are still the small eggs. She lays one everyday for the most part. Sometimes there's one day in the week that she takes off.
