lavendar orpington

Recently had what we're 99% sure is a coccidia outbreak amongst our flock. Most of the girls seem to be doing reasonably fine, but our lavender orpington Lilly seems to have it the worst and is having a rough recovery. Our splash maran and bielefelder hens also seem to have it but are having a...

Hi all! New chicken mom here. I have four 6-week olds.. I’ve ruled out 3 of the 4 breeds being pullets. Could anyone give me their input on this giant lavender orpington? Her legs are so long it’s almost like they fold twice when she lays on the ground. I don’t see any red yet.. totally peach...

I have a lovely lavender Orpington rooster and I cannot keep him due to city ordinance. Very friendly and loves to be held/pet. I would love for him to go to a good home- we are located in Chanhassen MN

We currently have four 4.5/5 week old chicks in the brooder. One is a lavender orpington, and we are 90% sure it's a rooster based on comb and waddle development. We cannot keep roosters in our area, so the plan was to rehome him in a few weeks once we are sure it's a rooster. But to add to the...

Every morning for the last two weeks when I open the door to let them out within 30 seconds a Hawk dive bombs them and only pulls up at the last second when it sees me there. I realized that it sits up on top of the light pole at the nearby high school football field and has a direct line of...

Her comb has no color still but today I noticed her waddles are very pink. Roo or hen? (She was bought as a pullet) She’s 6 weeks old. Anyone experience pink waddles but not the comb?

Help?! I’m brand new to this whole chicken thing. We got this guy at 1 day at a feed store, and were told he was male but as time goes on and I learn more and more, I’m not convinced. He does have a larger comb than the other 6 we bought that day, and his overall size is larger, but at 18 weeks...

3 Lavendar Roosters about 19 weeks old for rehoming. Asking for feed money, so maybe $10 each?

I bought pullets, 2 of which are Lavender Orpingtons… they’re about 16 weeks now and they look different from each other. I’ve never had a rooster but thought they had spurs which neither have… I’ve included a photo of each bird. So now the question is, is there a rooster among us?

I've read a few threads on here already, but looking to sex this 5 week lavender Orpington. I'll post more pictures later but this is what I have.

Take 2! I had posted a thread a month or so ago asking for help sexing my chooks; at the time they were about 4wks old. They have just hit the 8-9wk mark and I'd like to see what y'all think. Are they all girls? Or do I have a bunch of roos on my hands? (I reeeeeally hope not!😅) So here we go!

So I have black austrolorp hens and a barred rock hen, my rooster is a lavender Orpington and I was wondering if anyone would know what the baby’s would look like, for both the austrolorp and barred rock. Thank you to whoever can answer this!!!❤️

I’m looking for a black split to lavendar orpington in AZ. Any breeders out there? Would love to find a quality one for our lavendar roo! We are in the Phoenix Metro area. Thanks so much.

We were so excited to hatch Macaron from a Meyer Hatchery egg batch but he's starting to crow and the neighbors aren't chicken enthusiasts. He's a sweet guy and we'd like him to go to a good home.

Hey BYC! We have been looking at lots of pictures and feel relatively sure we have four cockerels and two pullets but we could use some opinions. They are all about the same size and temperament but two definitely have a smaller comb. We will have to tell our daughter that our “girls” may need...

Hi there. I am new to the group. I Started with chickens one year ago and have 13 laying hens, one rooster, and hatched 12 baby chicks in an incubator this spring! We have Rhode Island red, ISA Brown, americauna, Buff Orpington, and six week old Lavender Orpington, cream crested legbar, Golden...

I have been researching genetics of Lavender and Cuckoo for about 6 months now. I have finally started incubating and hatching eggs from my Cuckoo Orpington and now that the chicks are here I am not seeing any defined spots like I do on my legbar cross. Backstory: My hen was bred from a cuckoo...
