hi there

nice looking birds.

i'm trying to determine if three of my bbs orps are roosters, they're the splash, and two blues behind ray, a rooster without question

here's a collage of the same three (i can't really tell the two blues apart)

if anyone can help me out this this, i'd appreciate it.

Figured out yesterday that one of my buff orps is the first egglayer!! She's 19 weeks old.

One of my 1/4 English hens finely started setting, she started yesterday, I think Im going to let her hatch them.

The 2 blue & 1 splash look to be roosters to me.

thank you, rebel yell.

where did your orpington stock come from?

i got hatching eggs from shannon at red roof out of georgia, and some from a place in florida

clearly there are birds that look really nice, and some that are kind of scrappy looking.

i know now the questions to ask before buying hatching eggs again. live and learn.

Some of mine came from LC Orps. & my pure English came from justuschickens59 (Joy) both are very good folks, & are good frinds of mine, I have tried to get the best money & friendship can aquire, mostly frindship, not much money here, but you can bet you will get very good quility stock from these folks.

Beth G. :

I hate to be the one to break it to you....... Some Orp's don't lay until 9+ months..

like my blue gals...

But, I've heard of some laying alot sooner too

I will cross my fingers

and hope your gals lay on the early side!!
