I know. I would die for a lavender cuckoo like that.

But this is just a hatchery lavender (not cuckoo)

Not a single feather of FLOOF on this thing.

My complaints about Buff Orpingtons:

1. Solid Buff is UGLY. Not just on Orps. But on all breeds in general.
2. I HATE when people call their Buff Orps “buffs“ “buffies” “buff” “Buffy” etc... Orpingtons aren’t the only breeds that come in buff you know.
   
3. I HATE HATE HATE. When people are looking for breed recommendation and people say “Buff Orpingtons” why not just say “Orpington?” The color doesn’t change the breed you know.
4. The common hatchery Orps have ZERO fluff. Orpingtons are suppose to be a fluffy breed but instead you get skinny non fluffy things that look like this :

That is why I get all my English orpington including (buff) from this amazing breeder their so big and poofy and very broody. She also sells (lavender) (Isabelle cuckoo) (splash) (black) (crele) (mauve) (white) . She is the best private breeder amazing in what she does. I had a very broody lavender orpington who was broody on her first year 3x and this year broody 1x but still a lot specifically for being 2 years old.

I personally don't like BOs because every once in a while you will get a DORKY LOOKING ONE

Yes, I suppose. But does NOT deserve the name “Orpington”
