Orpington Breeds (What are they all?)

[Thunder344]

Hi!
I was wondering what types of Orpington chickens their are and what they look like. I've heard their is a lot of different types of this breed of chicken. So far i have found Black, Blue, White, Splash, and Buff Orpington, but no pictures yet. Any other information of Orpingtons is very much appreciated!

@ColtHandorf and @Faraday40 both have some good looking Orps.

There's lavender and some one here is working on crele.

The 'types' that you're talking about are colors. To my understanding, there are blue, black, white, chocolate, splash, buff, mottled, jubilee, lavender, and some other less recognized varieties like lavender laced.

I believe @MysteryChicken has a crele orpington project going.

Lots of breeds have many different color varieties. For example, plymouth rocks can be barred, partridge, white, blue, black, buff, and columbian.

Yup! Most breeds have a really common color (like Orpingtons are really common in buff) but if you look hard enough, you'll find a lot of cool varieties!

Buff.
Please ignore the glares. It's the look they give when they want me to hand over the mealworms.
