*Buff Orpington Thread!*

[RoosterLew]

I'm trying to find some buff orpingtons in the far north central Texas/ South Central Oklahoma area and I'm not having much luck. Any ideas?

Look Up Don Chandler - he can help you find some around there I'd think.

Gary Massey in north central TX has some nice buffs, he got his start from Fred Farthing. John McDaniels around Okla City has some nice ones also. I know John got his start fom Doug Akers. Both guys have nive birds. I'm sure there is others.

There's SD ranch in Farmersville, outside of Dallas. Beautiful orps but I couldnt say where they came from. If you google it though he has a website and facebook.

Love my BO's.... I am finally naming them. I have 4 hatchery girls that are 6 months old who just started laying the last week or so. Then I have my fancy trio who really spruce up the coop! They are 5 months old. I just officially named my cockerel. He is EDWARD! He was pretty disappointed when I entered the coop no crackers and instead just got my camera flash going off in his eye!

He looks so serious! Lol I seriously think Orps must be one of the most expressive breeds

I am pretty sure that he was angry that I did not bring crackers to the photo shoot!

Got into chickens recently and here are my Buff Orpingtons. They are about 8 weeks old

Do any of you think that chickens respond to baby talk? If not then I need to rethink my vocal nuances, but if you think they do respond to a certain pitch then I can continue to be the idiot I am with my chickens. I do know they know my voice and recognize me. Any thoughts from you chicken experts?
