The BANTAM ORPINGTON Thread

Black tailed buffs are the base color for the Mille Fluer coloring, If you cross them with a black mottled bird then you should get some MF out of that breeding.

If you could find me some black mottled bantam orps that would be great!!

I am just counting my blessings that I have been able to come this far, knowing that bantam orps are in such limited numbers and colors.

I was just guessing since you had that whole array of colors come out you might have had a black mottled. Maybe if you keep hatching you might, or you could try the buff mottled.

I only wish I had some black mottle bantams!

Maybe one day. I do have some buff mottle growing out that I will be using later on. I plan to take the gold laced back the the gold mille rooster that I have and see what it brings out.

Plan to cross the gold laced with this rooster

Oh, ok that should be an interesting breeding. Have you hatched out any males with the Brown red coloring?

The only reddish colored male I currently have is this one.

DOH i missed that one when you posted him the first time. That looks like a brown red, you could start a brown red proj with them, that would be neat like in cochins.

I'm thinking he would make a great start to blue laced red as well.

I think Tricia needs to send some of those project eggs my way

I beg you shamelessly.
