    Thank you for answering my question. No wonder they cost so much! That is a lot of trouble for only a few blues. I guess I'll be looking to breed something a little easier...

    Could someone please explain how to breed blue jubilees? Do you cross a splash orpington with a jubilee to get the blue color?

    Well, I live in Tennessee and I'm not up to speed on the cross state shipping laws for birds yet. Not to mention the only ones I'll have for sale is the extra toed chicks, so I don't think they would be very good for a show. I hope you can find some closer to your area. Thanks for asking :)

    Thanks for the reply, I don't want to over or under price them for my area. I live close to Jackson in West TN. The breeder these came from is located in Memphis, and his 2yr old laying hens/rooster were on Craigslist for $50 each. The birds I got were juveniles and cost me $30 each. My...

    Also, how do you improve their coloring? One of my girls is beautiful, but the other two don't have as nice of a pattern. What can I do about that?

    Hi! I'm new to raising the Jubilee Orpingtons, and I just got a starter flock of Greenfire Farms and Mark Sacre bloodlines last fall which I'm hoping to hatch several chicks from this spring. I'm not too sure on how to price them though, any advice?
