Has anyone in here ever dealt with frostbite on comb?

I just placed an order for this spring which includes 5 Buff Orpingtons. I cannot wait to get them! I've heard so many good things about them.

They are such sweeties, you will love them! When is your order supposed to arrive?

I went to a farmer's to buy Ameraucuanas & came home with what he said is a buff Orpington too but she's got such a dark head & multiple different body colors too, she's not a solid color like everyone else's photos! he also said she is 4-5mths old. will she get any bigger?

That looks like a buff Brahma
If it's a buff brahma they're kind of slow growing she won't really max out till she's like three

Here's one of my buff brahmas

Edited because I accidentally posted a picture of one of my Orpington's

I know he said he had some Brahma's last fall when I 1st got in touch with him about buying some chicks from them but I had to wait till they were over 4mths old (city rules) so maybe he didn't realize that he ended up with a Brahma egg!
The coloring is much more of a match for sure!!!! Would you say Sunshine is possibly a cross or a full Brahma?

They'll be arriving the 1st week of April.

I'm going to guess she's a cross my girls are just hatchery quality but your lady there looks a lot more slender... less feathers on the feet...
But she might round out and develop more Brahma like characteristics with age I don't know... sure are cute though.

Thank you for the info! I had to have her b/c of her personality & coloring! I don't really care "what breed she is"!!
