MsPoultry, I looked at both again…funny that they are both in a grey environment. My Dottie is close up on a ramp.

I read that you have to have special facilities just for their tails!!!!

We had some Friends that lost all their birds to a predator except one buff orpington, which they gave us because it was so lonely, and she was the dumbest chicken ever. she went broody and we set her on some eggs. she only hatched one chick, and during a big storm it fell out of the nest and we fond it later, dead, only a few inches away from it's mother. she was too stupid to save her only chick. she was a crappy layer, so we ended up butchering her, and she was only a little bigger then a bantam once plucked. I don't think she was a true buff orp though

they had gotten them from some hatchery were they were advertised as golden layers.

What kind of facilities?

I don't remember exactly but it was something about how the roost has to be such and such a height so the tails don't touch the ground

And maybe a sling to keep it out of the dirt/mud?

Have you seen phoenix chickens?

Yeah, they're cool to. I love unique chicken breeds like Polish, Yokohama, Frizzle, Silkie, Phoenix, Houdan, Ko Shamo, ect.
