Quote: I have Blacks that had no problem laying a egg 8 days outta 10 during 95 degree heat this past summer. Their very rugged breed. IF you have any concerns just keep them under a shade tree and run a sprinkle for a few mins a day when it gets near a 100. I did not do that, just had mine...

Updated pic of BUSTOFF. Since he is my project ORP everything bird, whatta great time to see how he is doing. AS you can see. He has lousy tail, type is ehh. But there is something about him. I know I have alot of fans of the potential colors he can throw. I already have a couple Golden...

Quote: Nice lawn mower. When I break out the tiller I about get taken out by my birds. They LOVE to see the tiller rumblin thru their pens. lolol

Now for something completely different. My lucky 13 that are first to go outside update.

I agree that it is nice to share pics with folks who like the breed. I feel very welcome on this thread to show my newest entries into the Orp world. And I can say Lavender here too. lolololol

Quote: I do a similar way to break a broody. I have these 8' by 8' pens that I use for breeding and raising chicks. Their perfect. Cause there is no nest box. The girls lay on the ground, and seem to never want to get broody on them since I move these pens every other day if not daily...

Quote: I like my broodies too. I have 3 Black hens tryin to stuff themselves into one nest box. I am for sure going to have something from all that motherly effort. lolol IF your in the Indy area and need cockerel let me know.

Quote: Their prolly too young to say yet. I don't even like looking at mine till their 7 mo's old. Even then some I was told to cull are keepers now. I have just 3 Black and Blue pens. BUS's pen is for the BUS to do what he likes. His girls would be, to some, their better quality. But I...

Here is one of the more loved mixed breeds boys on BYC. I posted pics of him on the other Orp thread, and had such great reviews, it is time to show a BUS pic for this year. ONLY other BUS pics ever seen was when he was a pup at 7 months ole. Now the girls are REAL Orpintons who I was told...

Quote: I am sure you will get alot of folks liking that idea. I am full up to my ears with potential project ideas. And had heard someone saying that was on their idea list. I wouldn't dare to think how to get started with that one.

Quote: Your birds look awesome and make any thread a pleasure to go and look thru.

Quote: My goodness those are some very nice birds, and alot of pics on your page! Thanks, there's alot of folks who have them here on BYC, and there is room for one more Orp thread and those who want to learn from others misbreedings.

Quote: There is alot to learn when you mix different genetics in. I think many folks wonder what if? This is a better "what if" thread to talk about those breedings.

Quote: This may be more catering to those who may like using Orpingtons to make newer varieties in addition to those on the other thread. Alot of folks like to make newer varieties and that may mean not doing it the conventional way. Which means using other breeds like Speckeled Sussex to...
