I will also have some real nice blacks once I pick the ones I want, got 21 chicks from Julie(bama) and she has gorgeous birds. Send me a pm and I will save it and let you know when I am going to downsize them
If anyone is looking I have some of my Exhibition Blacks offspring available. They are 6-9 + weeks old and ready to go. Going to be some monsters from this group!
Been a few since I last posted any updated pics.
Here are some I just took a few mins ago of the gang.
Feran
For now he is in with the number one pen girls
KORgo, he has been my main bird at the shows. He got a Reserve English at Greenville Ohio show (1,300 plus birds show)
BOSS HOGG has had condition issues. We're having an aweful time with mice. And his pen is on the move. But it doesn't detract what he is all about for breeding. He is with one of my young pullets and 2 Black Bamma hens.
He is a wide boy
Young Serpico is not as big as Boss. But he is going to stick around for a while.
Lots of hope for Flotilla and this Black Brown Red pullet.
Zero BCM Blood in this girl. Daughter of BUSTOFF
Tonka
Fedor is from the same combo that made my Buff Sports. He will be taken to my only White Orp pullet soon
Fedor and his brother have nice tails and i can use them in my Buff program for some variety
My $20 cock from Doug. Doug has the best Orps there is. I have seen his farm. He is the man!
This cock has the color and with the 5 Buff Orp chicks I am rasing from Doug I can safely say I am in the Buff Orp game.
Buff Sports. And with the foursome I bought with these little guys it is safe to say there will be more where these came from. Pontious/Hoosier Hatchery lines. There is a Shafer Lav Ameraucana hanging out with them.
Nice head!
One of many Black chicks growing out. I will be very picky this coming year. ONLY big heads, big chests and broad backs will stay!

This is the first year Joyce had any Buff Sports from her Buff Orp line. I hope to be able to use them this fall if not early next spring to make some more White Orps. In addition to my Buff Sports I also have this single comb Patterson Wyandotte. I may also use this young girl back to my Cuckoo Wyandotte to make White Wyandottes
Hoping some of you great orp fans and breeder extroidinaires can help me. My best friend has cancer and she's really ill with all the strong chemo she is having to go through. I'm building a chicken coop in her backyard and filling it with a great variety of chicks for her to look at. I'll be taking care of them for her, but I think the hens will bring her pleasure and hopefully some healing, even if it's keeping her brain occupied.
I'm on the search for a few orps to round out the group. I'd love a nice big buff and a lavender. The rest in the group are 9 - 14 weeks, so if anyone has some to part with that can work in that age group, I'm happy to pay for them and shipping of course. Appreciate your help! Thanks so much
