Lilly I'm suspecting her to be a cockerel, but I'm not sure they're all the same age, I'm hoping that Lilly is actully a Lilo but I doubt it

LOL! For the most part BO's are calm and sweet, but I've found mine don't back down too easily. They can get a little feisty when pushed.

So many fluffy butts!!
Awww...fluffy bums!

Lil Daisy
She looks like trouble!

Baby
Sweetie pie!

Still sort of looks like a Lilly to me, my boy had huge feet, he was already much bigger than the girls and the comb and wattles were already pretty red. Time will tell.

So excited that today I paid for 6 buff orp day old pullets! They will be delivered to my hardware store march 30th! I had BO chickens years ago and they are still my favorite chicken breed so cant wait to switch gears back to BO with my flock. Now I just need to find a BO rooster thats friendly!

Sounds exciting!
Love little ones (and big ones too!).
Post pics when the babies arrive.
Check your state thread or the buy sell trade forums here on BYC, sometimes someone wants to give up a boy, especially if he's not allowed where they live.
So far I've been pleased with my fella. The girls like him (grew up with him) and he is cordial with me, so no complaints (knock wood)

Lol I wanted to cross my buff roo with my lavender pullets when they're old enough but I also want to get some black roos or hens so I can also make some nice big lavs!! I'm still debating whether I should put 2 pullets with my buff roo or just get blacks and cross them! I just don't know lol with time I'll decide...... Hopefully
