Buff Orpington

Hey. I got this chick yesterday from the feed store. A Buff Orpington pullet. The store staff didn't know her age? Can anyone guess the age of this girl. 4-6 weeks? Thank you!! Ps sorry about the red light from brooder.

I would say 6 to 7 weeks.

I would say 6 to 7 weeks.

I agree!
She is so cute!

 

[Chicken Girl1]

I would say around 6 weeks

I agree!

Yeah she's very cute but a bit skeptical about everything. She is very loud when I pick her up. If she's 6wo, that means 6 weeks of not being handled. She was in a very tiny cage. She was as tall as the cage. Once she's perching on my finger, she sits and relaxes.

Aww! She sounds like a mischief! LOL!

sweet girl, sounds like no one tried to socialize her. You'll make it up to her

I live in an urban area where chickens aren't exempt, but noisemakers are. I've read that Buff Orpington's are one of the quieter breeds and relatively consistent layers. Is this your experiences with this breed as well?
