Chocolate Orpingtons

[h2oratt]

Not sure, I hate to eat them because the seem to be very nice to people. I have a year old one who is beautiful. Trying to learn the SOP and see if these two young ones are going to be better than what I have. Hershey the rooster

his only flaw was he wad over breeding the hens. He seems to have slowed down. He is so big I need to segregate my smaller hens from him. I have a golden campine that is tiny.

No it is a chocolate cuckoo bantam orpington. My serama just hatched it along with her four own eggs.

Nope, that's impossible... females express chocolate with a single gene... it takes 2 chocolate genes to express in a male, but they can carry a single gene that hides under another color, thus being split...
