Splash Orpington???

Thanks! I will contact the person who sold him to me and see if that is a possibility. I'll keep you posted!

That's pretty much what I figured... Kind of a bummer. I like him but if I was going to have a rooster, this certainly isn't the one I would have chosen. Too bad. He's a nice chicken.

If you're looking for an Orpington roo, I'm really starting to think one of my 10 week old Blue Orps is a "he" rather than a "she". I'm in Mass, so fairly close.

Hmmm.... Do you have a picture you could post? I think I need to hold off for a little bit to see what my new Cochin chick turns out to be. But I really do want a blue orp!

Here is a closer shot of his feathers, not so washed out. He's a little fluffier than he looks in the first pics I posted. Do they look more like orp feathers here, or rock?
