GORGEOUS BIRD

Ohmygushynesss no.
Stoop.
I might have to come over to the Orp side so i can snuggle him.

COME TO THE ORP SIDE
WE HAVE ICKY

I like d'uccles better in porcelain, I agree, the mille fleur are too fancy.

I would take either in a heartbeat.

She's embarrassed because her best friend is so noisy!

He's been screaming a while......does he need to breathe at all?

Do rooster usually breath? It was my understanding because they crow so much they have become immune to needing oxygen.

I 1000% agree with that! I wasn't sure where your line was. Rose comb bantams are one of my all time favorites.

Yup. Crests, curls, fuzz, or heavy foot floof is a bit too much.

Lemme make something clear.
I like simple, yet elegant chickens.
This is a gorgeous bird.View attachment 2450743
This is an over the top bird.View attachment 2450746

I see the two as different categories- the first one is magnificently beautiful, the second is ridiculou and ridiculously cute. I don't expect beauty from cute birds.

I see the second as a walking feather duster.

All of the American ones I've ever met were buttholes. The English one I had for a little while was amazing.

He's so cute! Why is he named "Icky"?!?!?!

They are cute. I have nothing against Cochins, I just like Orpingtons better.
My Meyer's catalog came today, I tore out the front page and stapled on a blank one that reads "MGG's (obviously my real name would be inserted here) Christmas List".

His full name is Lord Ickenham. Only a few are allowed to call him Icky- I'm not

The death stare.
Join the orps. Or else.

Frizzle is disappointed.

Good point.
We shall steal Icks away from those dreadful Orps in the dead of night.
