Someone Asked for Suede ... Blue Orp Pics

[Mrs MIA]

It's been really slow, so if it takes a while after you hit "submit" just give it a moment.

Yeah, that's been a pain all night long. System glitch.
The D'Uccle research I've been doing may or may not lead to breeding those, but so far, I like what I've heard. The most negative thing has been quite a few people saying the little roosters were aggressive, but I'd treat them like any other rooster, so that doesn't deter me. I may research some other breeds before all is said and done, but, none that shake the ground when they run toward you, LOL. Suede-quake!

Here is a picture of Suede and dear departed Velvet's daughter, Hyacinthe.

Pretty girl!

 

[Ellie]

Thanks, she had great parents for sure!!

One thing I did notice, Ellie, is that Hyacinthe got the proper darker eye color. That's what I have said before; that even though Suede may have his faults, when paired with a good typey hen, he throws some awesome youngsters. She's a real beauty, Ellie. I'm glad you have one of Velvet's daughters.

Thank you, Tony! Great to meet you and your cute son yesterday.

Good luck on those eggs. And come back when the new girls are laying to get some Blue Orp eggs. You need a blue roo, too!

Edited for early morning clumsy fingers, LOL.

I love them all! Those Orps are just so big and fluffy I have an urge to snatch 'em up and rub my face in their feathers. I have snuggle issues. You should see my poor dears run when I get that glint in my eye.

He is an orpington.

I know that he is an orpington, what I meant was my BO roo is hatchery quality. He looks taller with a longer neck, not short in the body like Suede.
