Buff orpingtons PICS ADDED!

[mamdoe]

Hi there,

I have three buff orpingtons, I think!?!? 2 of them are more of a yellow color with some white and beige and greyish colored legs, the other one is definitely buff/orange color with orange legs. Can there be color variations like this?
BTW..they are right around 3 weeks old.

Did you get them from a hatchery ? They are not suppose to have yellow legs, they are supposed to be white. When I ordered mine from Privett hatchery, two of the hens had yellow legs.

Here are the girls. I think they are right around three weeks, does that look right?

The yellow legged one might be a pet quality Orpington. The other two look like Easter Eggers.

I have buff orps from the feed store. You are right they do have white legs, cool.

Yours look allot like mine, but the legs are different.

I LOVE my orps. The let the kids carry them around and the rooster is so docile! Great family bird.

Wow. I like the EE's but I have to say I am a little dissapointed. I really wanted a few BO's. Kinda sketchy of the guy that sold them to me to pass them off for that.
Now that you all say it though their legs do look exactly like my other EE's
Do you think that 3 weeks old is about right?
