Can anyone tell me if this is a boy or girl?I was positive it was a boy because it was crowing at 2 weeks old but now it has stopped and its wattles and comb have turned yellow.Here are some pictures ,it is in with another one that is orp same age and that one is crowing,they are 8 weeks old.Its mother is a buff and the father is a BBS orp.

That Buff is what $20 will get ya at an APA show from a very high quality breeder's line.

The "BIRD" needs a wide load sign hanging off that rear end!

He has impressive width, to say the least.

Great reason why it is good to attend APA Shows. Bought this fella for $20 from one of the best Orp breeders around. And using that breeder's theory on breeding for quality you would want to only use one or two of your best hens with him. In this case I have 2 of Fred's (another fantastic Buff Orp breeder) Buff hens and one of my Britt line hens in with him.
