Orpington breed thread

[cluckmecoop7]

@call ducks, I saw you started a thread called "Australorps breed thread", and so I hope you don't mind that I started this "Orpington breed thread". Please reply in this thread is you don't like it.

Ok everyone! *This thread is to talk all about Orpington's. Including, Black Orpington's, Blue Orpington's, Buff Orpington's, and any other orpington their is!*

I'm hoping it will keep going and get at least 50 pages done!

Lets go!

I own 3 Buff Orpington's in my flock. Their names are Cream Puff, Kiwi, and Marshmallow. Marshy for short. All my flock are laying eggs now, they are still under one year. Pullets. I don't own a rooster, either. Also, this thread WELCOMES PICTURES!

This is Kiwi when she was younger.

I used to have Orpington. I got rid of all of them a year ago. Not all pictured are Orpington.

All Orpingtons; most are Silver-laced or Lavender. There are some sports in the last batch of chicks.

@Brahmachicken240, why did you get rid of them? I love this breed!

I adore Orpingtons!! I will try and get some pics of mine when I go to chores after dinner.

Is sport a specific coloration?
