How did your flock annoy you today?

Just something funny. My husband thinks my Lavender Orpingtons are creepy. He thinks they look dead and such, well now I'm pretty sure I now want more for .... Reasons.

I won't lie... I don't love the look either. The lavender color is a bit sickly. They certainly don't have that warm, Golden Retriever look that the buffs do.

Probably doesn't help that I think these 2 have the shredder gene. I wanted some Orpington but the Lavender was all TSC had at the time so I went with it. I am just mean though and want more just to freak out my poor husband. They are super shy but will follow me around which just freaks out the husband more because they are obviously plotting something lol.

Ah, yes, Orps have perfected the innocent expression!

That poor man will almost run away from my Lavenders. They really creep him out. They have that innocent look which just makes it worse. Honestly when they run up to me he flinches. It probably doesn't help that I have only 2 and 1 is a pullet while the other is a cockeral. He is not a fan of big roosters. My Bantams he likes just because they are tiny but the big guys he prefers to become soup or stew.
