There is so much jealousy in the Orp world, it really is sad that folks are not more supportive.

Renee, congrats to your friend. I wish him much success with his new birds.

This thread reminds me of why I don't hang out much on BYC and also makes me happy that I've never been interested in Orpingtons of any color or type.

Everything is relative.

We all need to remember what we're making a fuss about...

Chickens.

Exactly !!

But I really don't see anybody being unsupportive here? I just don't see the "chocolate" in the photos that Tony has posted. I would like to see some better quality photos - maybe we could see the "chocolate" a bit better.

Jealousy is alive and well in the world of chickens, as in everything esle...people taking credit for other folks work, scammers wanting to make a quick buck on folks who just want to import beautiful birds, etc. Pretty sad, huh?

They all look like Brown chickens to me. IF I wanted to make a Brown chicken, I would rather use an already full sized Brown chicken to start with rather then a Banty. Tony's Brown chicken looks as Chocy as many I see over in the UK. IF I wanted a Brown chicken, I would care less what others call it, IF it is Brown it is Brown. A fancy word like "Chocolate" does not make it official.
