[BobletFarmBirds]

If you can get birds from Anita Heatherly at Fawn Spring Farms, she has some beautiful varieties.

Mine are listed in my signature.

Yes! I have an order coming as soon as she gets her NPIP done for the year. Been talking with her for a couple months, super excited for those quality birds!!

@ColtHandorf Are you still selling English Orpington hatching eggs? I'm starting up a breeding program in Ohio and looking to start with some diversity in genetics. What colors you have cooking in TX? Feel free to message. You may not know me but I have been reading your experience and our brilliant resident genetic gurus to learn what I can.

They are pretty up-to-date. I'm having some fertility issues with a few pens. Their bottoms are just too fat. lol But you can shoot me a pm if you'd like.

I have Lavender and Buff Orpington mix and the roosters are beautiful! They've got every color in them minus pink! I also like the English Gold Laced and Silver Laced English Orpington! Oh, and I love Jubilee Orpingtons! Jubilee has to be my favorite!

Do you have pictures?
