Calling All Orpington Gurus!!

[CrazyClucks]

Happy is definitely an orp guru. I don't know how much experience (he? HAPPY WHY WON"T YOU TELL ME YOUR PRONOUNS) has with the fancy breeding though. @The Moonshiner mainly does leghorns, but may have mentioned orps? I think? there's kinda a thing going on where a bunch of us think that cochins are superior and a bunch think that orps are superior so we're having a friendly debate.

lol weeeeell fortunately for me I have BOTH sooo they shall both me superior in my book

I know the answer.

So......are you gonna tell us?

Sorry we've taken over your thread with our chatter.
I hate to admit it (i'm on the cochin side) but your orps are STUNNING! Your rooster is a VERy handsome boy.

Nope. Just bragging. Not my place to say.

Since you have blue and splash you could do a blue roo. Blue x Blue makes black, blue and splash. Blue x Splash makes blue and splash

I don't have English Orpingtons, just American Orpingtons.

I do love my Orpingtons, & working on a project color.
View attachment 2405592View attachment 2405593View attachment 2405594I have a few minor flaws to breed out, such as Squirrel tail, yellow skin, & extra points on comb. Body type is spot on though.

Thank you!! I have a Lemon Cuckoo I’m selling that isn’t quite up to my standards of body type but if he was I was going to try to do a spin off of the BBS/BBSC project! But you’re coloring is gorgeous!! I love it!! I was looking at some crele Roos but I can’t find one with the deep auburn I’m wanting! Very pretty birds though!

 

[JadeFarms]

Well is my theory right @The Moonshiner

Thanks, hope you find what you're looking for.

Mistake before, should be @Faraday40 and also @homeschoolin momma

You can probably make a blue, or even a lavender Jubilee? It'll look interesting.

I was thinking about that!! That would be interested!! Ohhh I’m loving this idea.... the love shack will be occupied by the end of this thread
