FALL ENGLISH ORPINGTON SALE!
(1) 100% English Jubilee Cockerel hatched March 13 this year--nice manners, no crowing (he is not the dominant roo on my property), but he is mounting my hens. Asking $25. My farm is NPIP certified. This cockerel was vaccinated by his breeder against Marek's and coccidiosis. He was PT tested negative in June.
(2) 50-75% English Black/Lavender Orpington split cockerels, four available, hatched about August 18. The black roosters were gigantic and gorgeous, and the lavender hens were stout English type. Asking $8 for one, or two for $10! These cockerels were hatched here and handled a lot. They have been vaccinated against Marek's.
I will be taking orders for Jubilee hatching eggs (GFF x Sacre/GFF) for late winter/spring, as well as 50/50 (on average) lavender and black/lav split hatching eggs in the spring. I have lav roos to breed to my black/lav split pullets, and am keeping one black/lav split cockerel to breed to my lavender hens. My lavenders have excellent color (no yellowing whatsoever) and are good sized, very attractive birds. The lavenders were also hand raised here as well from different lines than the black/lav splits, so there will be no concerns about inbreeding.
Please PM me if interested. I live near Indianapolis. The Jubilee is too large to ship. I would consider shipping the black/lav splits at the cost of a shipping box and postage. However, I would prefer they be picked up (besides, that way you get your choice!).
Thanks!
