Buff cornish

[al6517]

Really sorry to hear about it Jon, it does happen more than we think, heck there are some hatchery stock buyers who can't tell the difference. Think of it this way, sometimes the chicks are very hard to tell apart and by the time they are grown enough for you to realize you got shafted, you'd just rather keep the bird. The hatcheries know these demographics and actually market for it, think about it, most hatchery buyers really don't care what they get or if they even remotely resemble what they ordered. Still sorry you are just now deciding what you have, still worth keeping I would think.

I'm with al, they look like hatchery BO's to me. Probably just a mix up. Are you happy with your real cornishes? as for pictures, I didn't even know that buff cornish existed, that's why I asked you for a pic. Maybe you can't find one because they don't? Al would know though or if he doesn't he would know who to ask.

Those "Buff Cornish" are hatchery stock Buff Orpingtons, sorry.

THIS is what a Buff Cornish looks like, and they are VERY rare.

Do a google search for Buff Cornish, then click the on word "images" in the upper right hand corner. That pic is right there on the first page.

I tripped across it while looking for Tolbunt Polish photos, though.

How about this one from Welp Hatchery?

Do you guys think these aren't really Buff Cornish they are selling?
