Buff Orpington Rant thread!

[-Flash-]

What is a 'hatchery quality buff orp?' In Australia we don't have hatcheries. I might hate them

I was trying to figure out what they’re saying about me-anyone know what? I’d hate to have done something wrong.

I think they were trying to say that all the buff haters should have a bad night (idk what that means) except you. Sweet

They were saying everyone except you should have a bad night. Even if they were saying you should have a bad night, you’d never do something wrong.

No one here has done anything wrong. Some posters just choose to click on threads for the purpose of getting angry.

Please remember that BYC is a place to have fun, chat chickens, and express your opinions-if you follow the BYC rules.

i feel like this thread should not be allowed because its just made to hate on buffs and a thread i made saying don't be rude got kicked off BYC
have a bad night excepted @Lemon-Drop

thx
anyone on this thread don't come on my Theads hating on my apparently ugly @$$ buff orps

It's pretty silly to get so worked up about other people having a different opinion from your own. Regarding these two posts, I am going to quote something I said way earlier in this thread below because it's still how I feel, every bit of it. No, I will not go to your or anyone else's threads and hate on your or their birds, and I certainly wouldn't expect anyone else here to do so, either, as that would be improper forum etiquette. That is not what those threads are for. That's what this one is for.

I think it's important that the negatives of breeds, especially of very popular ones whose unique needs are often glossed over because of their popularity, be aired in a way that they won't be drowned out as they would be within a 'breed lovers thread'. I also imagine that those in the breed lovers thread would not take kindly to hater posts added to their thread, so separate threads do make sense here.

Not necessarily saying that Buff Orpingtons have any negatives beyond our opinion-based ones when compared to other breeds, but there are breeds with genuine needs that may go beyond the norm for chickens, needs which probably should be considered before one goes out and gets birds of that breed. Silkies and Polish, for example. Talking about our experiences with those breeds, or really any breed, and why we don't like them or won't have them anymore can be good food for thought for those who are considering getting them. Banning all breed hate does not help anyone.

I do agree that it should stay within its own thread, though.
