Fairy Tail Farms English Orpingtons

[JacinLarkwell]

yeahh..... I accidentally trained 2 of my polish girls to be aggressive like that. Didn't scold them when they pecked at legs and hands in curiosity and now they bite the worst out of most my birds. Males included. One will even do that rooster jump and kick and peck if you startle her. The Isabel is just too calm natured (around birds, not people) to really care

Therese two have very small crests yoo, so they can see quite a bit better than my poor buff laced polish gal

Someone sent me a picture of some of the birds they bought as chicks from me yesterday. The girls look amazing. And that cockerel will be very handsome I think when he's thought growing out.

You can definitely see a difference between them and the hatchery Buff Orpingtons.

Hey Colt, would I be able to pm you some pictures from a place I'm ordering next year? They have some Orpingtons I'm interested in, but I'm just not entirely sure if the ones pictured are decent

 

[ColtHandorf]

Sure. Or you could do it here so other people can offer their opinions and learn what to look for.

 

[JacinLarkwell]

Okay. They have 4 colors, Lavender (not interested in those though), Black, Chocolate and Jubilee.

I'm really interested in the jubilee (they said theirs are supposed to be bantams, but that they tend to max out at 5 lbs for males and 3.5 for females) and the chocolates

Unfortunately these are the only close to full pictures they have on their Site

Are they English? Or being bred for the APA type?

They do look small. So do their Chocolates.

have you reached out to inquire about additional photos?

I have not yet, planning to do that when i have some time to actually sit down and type up an email or call them. I think the chocolate, blacks and jubilee are english. At least, they look more English than the lavender do

 

[JacinLarkwell]

How are the pens all doing so far? Any idea if the replacement cockerel for the lemon blues will work out? Or is he not old enough yet?

 

[ColtHandorf]

Still not old enough and the girls aren't wanting to lay right now anyway.
