Pair of Silver Laced English Orpingtons Leesburg, VA

[Beaka81]

JB (cockerel) and Sallie Bizzit (pullet) need a new home, I have WAY too many roosters so I'm offering them as a pair. 3 months old on June 25th, pics taken approx 2 weeks ago so they have grown since then (they both look like they may have swallowed a basketball). Pickup in or around Leesburg, Virginia. They will eat treats from your hand but are otherwise cranky and don't want to be picked up. I'm new to chickens, and selling them, so please contact me with any questions or anything I may be missing. I will consider all reasonable offers to find them a good home together. For reference, they were 29.00 each as straight run chicks from Feather Lover Farms.

are your silver laced still available?

 

[Beaka81]

Yes, they are still available. They are also a lot bigger now, they look like basketballs with feathers! I'm heading to work right now, but only for half a day, so I can get you some updated pictures this afternoon if you like?

 

[Sawadee]

Yes, I would love to see current pictures. I am only interested in the hens.
thanks

The ad clearly states they are being sold as a pair...

 

[Sawadee]

Yes, the ad does state that, forgive me for asking.

 

[ColtHandorf]

it's possible she'd be willing to sell them, but it looks like she has too many roosters. Are you looking to breed Silver-laced Orpingtons, or were you just looking for some pretty laying hens?

 

[Sawadee]

I am just looking to add a few unique hens. I am a 1st time chicken mama and sadly I lost all but 3 of my girls this spring due to my ignorance and my mother's dog :-( Now I have a palatial coop and run that is a secure as Fort Knox and only 3 girls. 1 Americana who just started laying, 1 Guinea, and 1 Barred Rock.

Hmm. When it is cooler I could ship eggs or chicks. Possibly started birds/pullets, but I think it's too hot now.
