I have a LOT of catching up to do!

I‘m trying to keep a more peaceful presence in this battle. We definitely need some mediators.

Buff isn’t my absolute favorite Orp color. I much rather prefer Mauve or Spangled Orps. But I will still fight for buffs, because I have them, and my gals aren’t the nasty barf-vomit bad buff color.
 
Delusional thinking for sure! Let’s pretend that the whole world gets rid of all the other chickens, most of which by the numbers speaking are red sex link hybrids, leghorns and Cornish cross broilers. Replace them all with massive flocks of Buff Orpingtons. Will peace and harmony prevail around the globe. Afraid not. We would be plunged into famine as these hordes of inefficient feed converters consumed all the grain but only produced less half the amount of eggs and meat. Those are the facts. After WWII, birds like the BO were left behind in the dust, as sensible efficient feed converting hybrids produced food so well that famine persisted only in war torn, drought stricken, underdeveloped, countries
I meant no buff haters but not no other chicken breeds
 
Listen, good people of BackYardChickens, for this is the thrilling tale of the Battle of the Buff Orpington Opinions.

Pampered chicken girl, who was the leader of the Bufflover clan, gathered all her troops at the base of a mountain. Her troops included wolf-deer88, AmeraucanaHank, Idaho Chicken Bungalow, Quarterhorses1, BuffOrpmom, saz5333, SandyRiverChick, and Fwoof, who all had their swords at the ready. But on the horizon, Pampered chicken girl saw their enemies, the Buffhater clan, marching towards them with their leader EmmaRainboe in front. she had TheDawg, OneHappyDuckie, and ColtHandorf behind her. But the Bufflover clan was nine strong, whereas the Buffhater clan was only four strong. Pampered chicken girl and EmmaRainboe stood face to face for a moment and then they both called at their troops to begin the fight in unision. But... could the Buffhater clan, or even the Bufflover clan expand their troops somehow?

Ooooo I like turning it into a story
 
There needs to be a “ meh” button. I’m neutral! Buffs have pros and cons. Shall I list some?

Pros-
Sweet and friendly
Cute booties
All around good for many purposes
( mine have also NEVER ONCE gone broody which is nice and gives them points)

Cons-
Not great layers
Very loud
Boring color and personality
Just such meh birds in my opinion. I wouldn’t mind not having them but I also don’t mind having them:idunno that’s my 2 cents.
