Blue Orpingtons-Julie, What Do You Think?

Well, of course you have to build another coop! No one can have just one, LOL. I now have three. Well, one is actually half of a storage shed and we're talking about building an equipment barn so the rest of that shed can be turned over to birds.

WOW Speckledhen, they are beautiful!!!! I have some blue cochin chicks and I'm hoping they'll look similar to your blue girl, except for long feathery feet!!!!

Is this the famous Gordie? I've heard good things about his birds, if so.

Thank you for sharing, I am new to chickens and had never seen a blue oph. They are beautiful!!! I have a buff in my family now and she is just a sweetheart. Come spring I need to find some blues for sale. I have been looking for a unique bird for my son. He will start 4-H in the summer and this would be a great start.

Plus as all of you had warned this has become an addiction for me. So don't tell my DH but I am using my children as excuses to buy more chickens!!

Yes speckled hen, its Gordie himself

He got good birds and I would not hestiate buying one but I think I got enough Blue Orps together from Debbie......
