Buff Orpington haters and lovers WAR!!!

[Rise722]

I kept 3 BO hens in a chicken tractor for several months. They are big birds. They would be good for meat. Even grazing in the tractor they ate a lot of feed. Way too much. They don’t lay that well and barely paid their way. While you could use them for meat, they would eat a lot of food over a much longer time than broilers. Perhaps they would make good breeding stock for a new hybrid bird. They were used to develop the Black Australorp which IMO is a much better bird. That’s the only good thing I have to say about them!

Ranger Gord - what a hoot! He keeps showing up on the Murdoch Mysteries...great character!

I think that prize goes to Cochins, not Buffs.

Fair, Buff Orpingtons are 2nd then such beautiful, beautiful fluff butts.

Fair, fair...

Buffs are friendly, but maybe too big for my area. I'm leaning more towards Wyandottes.

I haven't actually seen many haters. They have just voted mostly. Probably cause we make a good point.
