Orpington vs. Pekins...

[Chookwagn]

Cochins are most definitely better. Orps secretly wish they had bedroom slippers to keep their tootsies warm.

Utter shock.
Have to agree that English and American Orps are completely different. I believe ours are more puffy. And more regal.

What I'm trying to say is your American Orpington are inferior.

Is my Orp high quality for an American?

Hi there. Just wondering if you have any fluffy legged birds. No? Er, any with beards, by any chance? No reason.

My Rainbows ate my watermelons. The Pekins ignored them, but like apples...

and with that, I'm stepping off, having reached the limits of my knowledge on this subject.

Best to you both, and yeah, the Orps from across the pond sure are cute. None in my flock though.

I love her head.

Your mind has been corrupted by Cochin banties.
She is rather a fine bird though.

Or sure, we can talk about watermelons instead. They're round too, I'm sure that will fit Overo's tastes.

Allow me to introduce...the English Orpington. They're all puff and fluff.
I also think that hatchery quality are another thing.

I love English Orps. For every English Orp I can have 2-3 BCs though.

It's a space thing.
