Here are my sweet girls, Leia & Calisto at 5 weeks old:

I would love to hear observations on possible differing temperaments in the different colors. I have 1 blue & 1 Lavender, both 2 months old, & a black 4 week old. I gave away her buff brooder buddy & totally regret splitting up my orp rainbow pack, as I adore all of my orps & really wanted 1 if...

I'm sorry I don't know the answer to your ?, but may I ask what the other 25% is in your lovely birds?

I know what you mean. I read the instructions & they say it's something you work up to with daily adjustments until it's just right. I hope you find them a great home if the collar isn't a viable option for him.

Have you looked into the no crow collar feom mypetchinken.com?

So pretty! I hope someone knowledgeable here can help you with setting your price. Me, I'm just drooling :)

when i ordered our blue orpington the hatchery website said that blue is an unstable gene so i may recieve a blue, a black, or a splash. I was really hoping for splash, Lol! But she is now a beautiful blue at 8 weeks old, so i paid the same pretty penny to get her a little black sister. If i...

I can't speak from experience as I am now raising our 1st flock, but I'm in the part of the northwest with pretty harsh winters & chose 4 orpingtons in our mixed flock for what I've read about their cold hardiness & being so affectionate & great with kids. I have seen tons of pics of kids...

Hi all, I received my Black Orpington (supposed to be female) chick from Meyer Hatchery on Tuesday. The problem is, I also received a Black Australorp & Black Jersey Giant. I'm having a really difficult time figuring out which chick is which breed (note to self: order mixed colors next time...

I don't know the answer to the question as to how fast they grow, but everyone in my family has noticed that ours are smaller than all of our other breeds at the same age.

Thank you! One week old today, and so very snuggly. They are happy & healthy. Leia loves me the most, & when i pet her she arches up into my hand like a little cat! I introduced these tiny 3 to my five week old flock consisting of 3 polish, a cochin, & a Wyandotte - our older babies are so nice...

Thank you! The only Blue Orpington thread I found here on BYC was not too encouraging as far as health tendencies, so we will see. That was a year old thread. Here is her Lavender Orpington Brooder-Buddy, Princess Leia: They are both so wonderful! That's a Buff Brahma next to Leia.

Hi everyone! Here is Callisto, a Blue Orpington I picked up from the Post Office yesterday. She is from Meyer. Does anyone have any idea if she will turn out black, blue, or mottled? Their website says any of these colors are possible when you order their Blue Orpingtons.
