Someone had offered me a Buff Orpington x New Hampshire cross rooster. I was wondering if anyone could please show me a picture of what he'd look like? I tried googling and couldn't find any.
 
I don't have pics on this computer- but I had a few RIR x Buff Orps. They were a great crossing! Big & fluffy like Orps, but more of a ginger color. They were broody raised- but weren't as flighty as you'd think.

I'd think NHR crosses would be pretty similar.

I would think they would be a bit lighter than New Hampshires, I bred some one time that were from a Buff Orp X RIR cross, and those ended up looking like New Hampshires.
 
I have 2 BO x Partridge Rock hens that look like a ginger colored BO.Big and fat with just a touch of penciling near the base of the tail.They lay much bigger eggs than both of their parent stock and that happens a good bit when you cross two pure breeds.They are hybrids and often lay better than the parent stock.That's why sexlinks are so good at laying.
