12+ Buff Orpington Hatching Eggs

[Mrs. Fluffy Puffy]

The auction will be for a dozen plus. My Buff Orpington flock has been separated for almost a month now, so their eggs should be pure. This is a good economical way to add a few Buffs to your flock. I would also consider a trade for other purebred eggs, depending on what you have. My girls are all laying Large, to X - Large brown eggs, most eggs are quite dark but some could be light brown.

Below are pictures of some off-spring from my flock. The Rooster ( Bill Boy ) is huge, and isn't done growing yet. He is very sweet and will eat out of my hand and is very gentle to his girls. The other young hen ( Jane ) is very sweet and docile and I'm pretty sure she is laying. My Buffs are good free rangers and don't wonder far from the barn, they are heavy birds and offten go broody. They're very good mothers and just an all around great addition to any poultry flock.

How big do your particular birds get?

I don't know how much they weigh, but I'd say around 5-6 lbs. for the hens and maybe 7-8 lbs. for the roosters depending. One of my roosters ( who isn't pictured ) is smaller than Bill Boy ( who is pictured ), so it depends.

Size...well Jane is about the average size for most of my hens.

That's so sad!

My little babies just hatched. I'm going to name my favorite chick Reepicheep in honor of yours.

Your orps are lovely!​

To me, your BO's look like hatchery quality... At least compared to breeder quality that I've seen. I mean, I'm new to this, but you should probably include "hatchery quality" in the title or something, so folks aren't mistaken? Just a thought. Most auctions on here are of quality birds, I do believe, so wouldn't it just be easier for people to buy some hatchery chicks already hatched, instead of going through the trouble for this?

I don't mean to be rude, just suggesting, so people really know what they're buying.
