the buff orpingtongs are such pretty girls and so sweet except when they are in the nesting box thats when they puff up and double in size and growl other than that sweet girls very fun to watch peck around very good layers i have no complaints about them all around awesomeWe should SO rename this thread "Who likes colorful flocks?" lol! That's a wonderful collection, Nelson 90! And dang, I totally forgot about the EEs and Ameraucanas -- I'd love to have some blue eggs!
How do you like your Orpingtons? They're a breed I haven't ventured into yet, simply because I haven't gotten a sense that they have any one outstanding feature that some other breed doesn't have. What do you like best about them?
