Post Pics Of Orps/ Orpingtons HERE

Here is my pullet, Velvet. She is only 4 months old and huge already! Anyone want to take a guess if this splash one is male or female? It's also 4 months old.

Very pretty girls!!

I agree they look like girl faces. By 20 wks, an orp boy would have a taller comb like this:

Glad to hear they are both girls, although I wouldn't have minded a splash rooster to make blue babies with the black one.

Of course! If you had needed both to be female, they'd have both been roosters!

please quote who you are referring to, I can't figure out who you are trying to ask. If it is on this page it is most likely a orpington English or American

I know that Jubilee is not an accepted color but can anyone tell me if these are the correct body type? What am I looking for with Orpington's?

basically the body type you were looking for with orpingtons is a basketball with feathers. You want them to be as round as you can get them. Nice and full chest, no split breast, and you don't want the legs real short or super long, you kind of want them in between. Wings should be carried high and pulled in against the body so they do not droop.

Yes. That's what I thought when I saw my first English Orp.
