Yep. Not fluffy.

Looks pretty fluffy to me specifically since she is the biggest one out of my black austlorps and blue austlorp clutch.

She will not be that fluffy. No offense to Hoovers, but generally their birds are . She will likely not be any fluffier than most hatchery buff orps.

They don’t care about quality. Just money.

Because they breed for production not quality.

Yep. If you want a good quality orpington I would look for a high quality English or American Orp breeder. English Orps are floofier.

Do you know any hatchery that sells and poofy orpingtons like show orpingtons that are not messed up.

Greed with money and production has ruined this breed which makes me sad
