Buff Orpingtons

[Sylvie]

I've got three 8 1/2 week Buff Orps. Mine are so quiet but from what I read on here that will change. They are just a joy to watch outside in the pen. It's like their shape is always perfect. My SLWs really had a pitiful Starling stage for a few weeks but not these beauties. I keep thinking that I can't wait to see them grown but I love watching them as babies now.

I have to agree that the buffs are a beautiful bird. I was just to have pullets but ended up with a BO rooster and I'm glad I did. He is a handsome guy and he takes care of my first set of hens(7) and just now letting the 14 younger hens into his care. My two buff hens just started laying a couple weeks ago. I'm glad to see some pics posted because their combs and wattles are pale in color compared to my SLW and Australorps. I was beginning to think they may be a bit under the weather. They seem happy in every way. But in these pics they are the same color. WHEW!! I guess that is normal, huh?

My favorite Orpingtons are the BBS Orpingtons, but I do have a buff hen, and she's great!

She is currently broody...again

And is setting on 21 eggs.

Here is my black orpington roo, I will be getting a splash orp. today from PC, so I'll have blue babies soon
