Here are some of my Buffs and RIR's.

Oh, and they are great breeds to keep you company when you lock yourself in the coop.

People are always telling me my BO's are too plump - looks to me like they are just about perfect as compared to others. And now I am curious as to how much they weigh. Poor hens will have to have a trip to the scale!!!

My hen isn't that heavy! Lol. I think they are great!

Hey!! Great thread! I have a few nice pics to post! I keep Golden Comets (sexlinks) and Buff Orpingtons!

So here are a few pics of my Orps or Orps that I have owned and now sold...
This is Remi (Remington), The BO who got me hooked on BO's

This is Rowdy, Rawley, and Rome. Rome has gone to a new home, but Rowdy and Rawley are still here. Hopefully Rawley will find a forever home too.

I have another BO roo, Tootsie, but I don't really have too many pics of him yet... (don't ask about the name!

)

Here are a few BO Hens that I got at the same time as the three roos listed above... (sorry for all the face shots of these ones, it is all I have for the moment)

Are BO mixes allowed? If so, here is a few more of a mix I created the I like to call an Orpet (Orp X Comet). Her name is Winnie.

Excuse the bald-ness in the next one... Mommy had a "go-round" with another chicken over the baby. (Hence, why they are in a cage)

This is her all grown up, right after she laid her first egg.

Haha, we were having a "first egg photo shoot"!

Hope this adds something to this thread!

We have RIR's, five hens to be specific, and we love them. I will always have RIR's. They are exceptional layers, and are quite hearty when it comes time for the crock pot. But what I love most is their personality. They eat scratch right from my daughters hands. They are quite friendly and make wonderful pets. I love how when they see me they come running up to me looking for a treat. On top of that they are gorgeous birds. I love the RIR!!!

I cannot wait! I have a RIR, and she as been laying straight for 4 months, well, she took one day off but the next day was a double yolker..

We a few Buff Orpingtions, couldn't find any Rhode Island Red's to buy. Maybe when we get a bigger coop will search some out.
