Cochins Vs. Orps Bickering thread CHOOSE YOUR SIDE

[chickenlover007]

I love the little competition going on here

But seriously, I don't know if I can choose! I had a fair bird a couple years back who was the sweetest little blue bantam cochin (she actually helped me win 1st place, the judge had a soft spot for her). But then one of my first chickens was a BO, and I am loving the spunky and sweet little bantam orps I have right now!

Ok, so I voted for orpingtons, just because I have one and she is awesome! I have never had a cochin, so I do not really have an opinion on them one way or another. They are pretty cute!

Yep! They're real! Good layers, friendly, simply adorable... Bantam Orpington

But I love my gentle cochin too...

Nice.. pick cochins

Yes keep them in a bucket. Next time you should put them in that bucket you throw all your trash in!

I have popped onto a few breed lover threads and shared my stories. There are so many awesome breeds out there!

PROOF!

Orps are much classier than Chokems: here they are dust bathing in my exclusive espalier camellia raised garden. Hmmmph. Plus, they are not hurting ANY plant!

I didn't know you had SL Orps.
They're stunning. Where'd you get them??

"Giant. Fluffy. Beachballs." That have clean legs so when it rains or snows they don't look like bedraggled rats with wings. That's English Orpingtons if I didn't make that obvious...lol

*shoves cochin in general direction* excuse me, this is a perfect angel. No bedraggled rats here.

This is on the post where I said that even Bob Ross thinks that cochins were a mistake. I think somebody secretly loves orps...
