Has anyone ever crossed a Silver laced Wyandotte roo with Buff Orp hens or vise versa? If so what colors did you get? The vise versa cross should be sexlinks.

What about a Speckled Sussex with Buff Orps? either way.

Any info and/or pics would be great.

Yes, I was on her site a while back looking at her Lavender Orps and I saw those pics, but she wouldn't tell me which breed was the male parent and which was the female parent between the two breeds when I PM'ed her.

Speckled Sussex (SS) X Buff Orp (BO) would be much the same either way.

I've crossed Buff Orp males onto Spangled Dorking hens. Spangled dorkings have a similar colour to SS but are on wheaten (eWh) like UK SS. The results look much like dark buff orps but with smut.

I've made jubilee & blue jubilee Orpington wannabes. Though, I used blue orps for the first cross. They're improving but it is not easy to get good markings & typey birds.
