Blue Orpington Roo!

[MissPrissy]

Where are you getting these chicks from? Do they have eggs?

 

[EweSheep]

Conness Crazy Acres, near Streator, IL and she does sometimes have eggs. Right now she is unable to send out eggs due to molting. Will pick back up in the spring. Sometimes she can ship birds and sometimes she cant. Most of the time she will sell her culls to Kankakee Swap sales, in Illinois. All of her birds are from Catalupa Farms, I believe she now has third going on forth generation from the original stock from CAtalupa Farms....

Happy to say, we finally named this rooster GORDON!!!! Chef Gordon Ramsay and the person I bought him from LOLOL! He weighs ten pounds and three oz! OMG!

 

[EweSheep]

Well I got a very nice email from the previous owner of the roo, he said that this roo was shown recently and placed top of his class. Oh, I didnt know that! Nice bonus too!

 

[EweSheep]

Thank you BYC folks! I have one more spot open for hatching eggs and two more for chicks and started chicks.

Hey, our Blue Orps are pretty popular, huh? I just wish I had more pullets to carry the load. I will in the spring, though; that is, if I can hatch anything but cockerels, LOL.

 

[EweSheep]

Yep, they are popular in both sites.....and good people that are serious about them too!

Sure beats waiting in line for Sandhill or Catalupa chicks!

 

[Kristina]

OK Ewesheep put me on the list for eggs....I love these guys!

 

[EweSheep]

Got you down Kristina.....now the Blue Orp spring hatching eggs order is NOW closed but will take orders for the summer and fall hatching egg orders! Kristina, PM me your addy and I will add that to my book

Blue Orps started chicks still open! Crossing fingers that I still can deliver from where I am at LOL!

Silver Spangled Hamburg Bantam hatching eggs are still available and maybe some started chicks. You will get six and some extras or six Hamburgs along with assorted Orpingtons (can be either one or both Buff and Blue Orpingtons).

We will be offering assorted Orpington eggs...Buff (hatchery production) and Blue Orps (Catalupa, Stanley lines and Sandhill lines) by the doz.....will take orders on that right now. No guarantees that there will be all of the same color but I know some of you are hoping for some Blues in the lot...I will do my best to include those as well. PM me if you want to be on that list!

Got a very nice email from Angela Stanley, no she is not related to him at any way but she got some of her birds from him. His wife carried on for a little bit before they were sold because it may got to big for her to handle after Tommy passed away. Tommy was a very popular exhibitor of his birds and did well in the East Coast....too bad I never heard of him and pics of his birds never seen either.
