Power Poultry is currently the caretaker for the Royal family's Orps. Very nice birds too!

Power Poultry are on the UOC Proboards. They come on every now and then.

Yeah, she is a very nice lady. 2 years ago they must have seen my post about them. They joined here too. She said that she was looking into MAYBE selling some of us USA Buff breeders some of her best males seamon. Not sure what ever happened to that for her. Haven't seen her post since 2 years ago. They still have a very nice flock as you can see on the net. I am sure many here would love to get something even if it was just sperm shipped to work with.

Found my glasses!
Here are some more American SOP Orpingtons bred by Jim Hall. These are the photos of the other 2 pullets of the 4 pullets I hatched. They are 16 weeks old, and full sisters to the 2 I posted a couple of days ago. Big girls also.
First 2 = #96




These 2 = # 99

Looks like a BUFF day to me. A few of the girls. The oldest is just getting to 6 months old, the others are close to 5 month oles.

6 month ole or near



5 month oles



A FOWLMAN's AVATAR looking Buff pullet. Still very young. Give another few month and she should be ready to show

Hey all you Orpington experts... I have a color question... I have a blue orp pullet the kiddos named Blue (kiddos named her, since, right now she's the only one we have=)
She has some gold or copper leakage (not really good with colors, you can see in the pics) on some feathers on her neck... I will post them below, but how does that happen?? The color is obtained by crossing black and splash orpingtons, right?

Leakage feathers on neck:

I really appreciate your knowledge and education!

Thanks for the input, I am planning on keeping her, because overall she is so pretty!! I just love those blue feathers!! I was just curious how you get that color feather on a bird that was crossed from black and splash... is it just leakage from way back when the different color varities were developed, more recently? Again... just curious and learning myself, thanks!!

BEAUTIFUL pics of orps on here, BTW!! Those pics of Prince Charles and the birds with Raven are quite impressive!

Lots of weasels, badgers, and stoats, not to mention foxes. The fox population is growing at a terrifying rate due to the ban on hunting.
