    So is it true buff orpingtons go broody often? Is it the same for lavender orpingtons?

    You can't stop them going broody. You need to break them if they do go broody. Generally by putting them in a wire bottom crate slightly elevated off the ground. Sometimes just penning them away from their chosen nest site will break them too. Generally for 3-5 days.

    I had breeder, or show quality buff Orpingtons who went broody constantly. So it depends on the parents. Broody hens often make broody offspring.

    Depends on the breeding behind the birds. My hatchery stock never went broody. Both buff and lavender.
