I bought 12 jubilee Orpington eggs and only two hatched. This lady was shady to begin with because she would only meet me at the Walmart parking lot (I was really hoping to see her chickens) and when only two developed (air sac issues and 3 were not even fertilized) and I kindly questioned her about paying for more eggs—SHE BLOCKED ME. Anyways, Marbury (the lavender) and Madison (red with pearl tips) are 10 days old. I am certain Madison is a jub but Marbury looks suspiciously identical to my Marley (lavender orp). Madison has short wings with paint brush tips and are two stepped and Marbury has very long (almost body length) rounded wings. Did she give me two different types of orps or can jubilees hatch this pastel? See pics attached.

I'm hoping I'm wrong, but I'd have to agree with you: that looks like a Lavender Orpington (or some other lavender bird). You would think you would see some patterning on the wings.

What a frustrating experience!
