Buff Orpington with Green Feet?

[JackieK318]

Do Buff Orpingtons usually have green feet? If not, then what does have green feet?!

Americanas and Easter Eggers normally have green legs and feet. I don't know about the Orpingtons.

I have five buff orps and they are now 8 1/2 weeks old. sorry, they have never had green feet. I also have americaunas and they do have green feet. hope that helps?

Buff Orps have pinky white feet, so if yours have green, then they probably are crossbreeds somewhere along the line.

Jackie......may I ask where you got your Buff Orps? I ordered mine from MM back in March. They are supposed to be "pure" BO. Well....of the 15 hens...one had bright yellow leggs, and 3 or 4 have greenish legs. So much for "pure"! I will be calling MM again later this week....after I get better pics of thier legs, in case they want proof. UGH! So much for 4 H hens!

I got mine from a local breeder south of St. Louis. I don't mind the cross, but just was curious as I always see pinky legs on everyone else's buff orps. I figured she was a cross somewhere along the line...poor mut of a chicken. Speaking of chickens, off to care for the 'girls' one last time for the day.
