I have 3 beautiful chickens. My Easter egger rooster is big and gorgeous. My little buff Orpington hen is pretty. I had a buff Orpington rooster that was big and gorgeous like the black one but he died. Now I have this mystery chicken. It looks rooster-ish but it's small and ice caught it twice sitting on eggs. Compared to the EE, he's about half the size, same size as the hen.

They're the same age. The Orpingtons I got at a day old together. The EE came a bit later so he's the youngest. So beautiful though! His feathers have a shiny green coloration. Kind of like what oil on the ground looks like. Just shimmery greenish-black with pretty gold feathers peppered in there. He's a keeper!

She must just be maturing a bit faster than!
They all look beautiful by the way:love
