Thanks! Yes that looks like them........ I had several that were barred and a few that were all black. Don't have my orps anymore so won't be making that cross again, mostly focussing on the Dels, BCM and Wellsummers. I appreciate the pics!
Zanna, these are a couple of the ones I got from you...I think anyway.
Not a great picture, but this is the pullet that I'm liking...
That is spectacular!!!!Thought I would share this picture of some furniture.
I really like mine! Originally got them because they are dual-purpose and I wanted the large,dark brown, speckled eggs. My originals were from a private breeder, not hatchery stock and they have a nice, quiet demeanor. Not in your lap chickens, just go about their own business although I do not handle my chickens much as I want them to be predator savy. When I lock hens in the breeder pens (normally everyone is free-ranged) they keep laying and stay really calm, don't rush at the door everytime I try to get in. They are my 2nd favorite breed (Delawares are my first!).
