I currently have 4 barred brock pullets, and my friend has buff orps she wants to trade 2 of hers for 2 of mine. I told her yea since my roo is buff orp it be cool to have mixture of buff orps & barred rock.

Thanks :)
 
I think it all depends on the hen some NEVER go broody and some you have to break from it. I have had better luck with older hens like 2-3 years old. How old are the buff orps? Maybe someone else can give you better advice mine's not very good I know
 
Thanks there 18 weeks old she said they are already laying eggs, Its ok I can ask my friend shes experince with buff orps, Thank you for trying!!
