WHAT?

And you are just now telling us about them?

This is the best kept secret on BYC.

Congratulations on your hatch Sandy. We can't help you with your addiction except to enable you and or send you some more eggs.

What a problem to have! To be over run with blue/black/splash orpingtons. Must be something in the spring air causing that.

LOL...

.. Okay Yogi...you can send me up some of yours too...

Hey Sandy, I was at one of my friends house this morning and she has some chickens I hatched for her back in Oct. The Orps are 6 months now and she has a huge black pullet. I am going to have to go get a picture of her. I can't wait to see her in about 12 months when she really matures. she has three RIR's that are outstanding too. Told her she should show them this fall. She has played with them so much that they just let you pet them like cats.

Your babies are just gorgeous. I love blue chickens and if I ever get to the country, I'll have a flock with and try to hatch blue babies. I'll have to study the genetics of them first. I know they probably aren't all that easy!
