    Are these shredded feathers?

    5 month old lavender Orpington hen, hatched from a pure lavender hen and a split black lavender rooster. She has had the most awkward slow growth and looked like a weird rubber chicken for months, and is still looking not quite right. I’ve been so afraid of the shredded gene that I got a split...

    SW WA - need to rehome 2 young roosters

    I have two 9 week old roosters/cockerels in need of new homes. Purebred gold laced polish and purebred lavender orpington purchased from a local breeder. I adore them both but have too many roos.

I'm actually also working a second project with him to eventually breed Chocolate Mottled Orpingtons too. So I'm growing out my...

    Brahma x Isabel orpington

    Just wanted to share this interesting breed combo I hatched. This chick is from my splash Brahma hen and my Isabel Orpington rooster. I was surprised to see that it grew out completely dark with full barring but my rooster does have barring as well it's just very light. It's totally a...

    2+ week old Lavender Orpington

    Hi first time chicken owner. I'm not allowed to own roosters in my city so it'd be best if I can identify them early and return them to the store. I've looked up online and makes don't usually have tail feathers but the chicks comb is pretty defined this young.

    My hen is blind

    Our 6 month old hen has been acting strange the past few months; walking into fences, walking into other chickens and avoiding the flock completely. We had a feeling she was blind or something wrong neurologically. On closer inspection we’ve found her eyes are indeed cloudy which is...

    Which of these two feeds would be better? And what do these values translate to in practice?

    I buy feed from my local feed store. In my country they have two categories to choose from: broiler and layer. Which of these would be the best option for a mixed flock of backyard Orpingtons? I have cockerels in a run by themselves, and they get to free range on the lawn an hour or two...

    Lavender Orpington: Roo or Pullet?

    I have a 4.5 week old lavender Orpington! Comb and wattle has turned pink. Is it safe to assume he/she is a Roo or is it too early?

    Do Austrolorps/Amaracaunas usually have poopy butts?

    We have two Easter egger hens (mix of amaurcana, australorp, and possibly buff orpington) with a lot of fecal matter below their vent (not on). I think their feathers are catching it. Is this normal or something to worry about? Should I trim their butt feathers?

Looking for quality Black, Buff, and possibly spangled or mottled. But here’s where I’ve hit a roadblock… Is anyone here working with Orpingtons in Europe or UK? I...
