So far I have six oprs. I predicted right because I was sure one egg was not good. They look great. The mixed group so far has one chick that looks buff and is pretty big. The maran egg?(copper) has pipped last night still watching it. One other egg ( light tan/pink) shows no signs yet. The white egg and anothe tan one are not good. Time will tell. I will get some picture when I transfer them to the brooder box. I am enjoying this so much!
6 out of seven eggs is not that bad. So are you going to get an incubator for Christmas. Brinseas or on sale on their website and you can get a coupon code on facebook. Does the buff looking one have feather legs? I think a buff orpington frizzle would look really funny. When they start feathering out you can tell if its a frizzle or so. Cant wait to see pictures. I have not hatched any from my mixed breed coop and I am surprised they were fertile because I didnt see my frizzle or my Swedish flower roo. mounting any of the buffs.
Also in the spring do you want to swap black orpington eggs for we can get more genetic variations in our flocks. I hatched mine from eggs I got directly from hink jc . The rooster it sooooooo big and he is not fully grown yet.
My friend has 2 LF Frizzle Buff Orps and they are AWSOME! Absolutely beautiful big fluff balls!
