[jimmythechicken]

you are so right.if anyone asks us about breeders i am always honest i know alot of breeders that do have nice birds but are just a-holes an hate to deal with.renie is great she has awsome birds an is just honest helpful an caring.an just wanted people to know if they are looking to get great birds an not have to worry about if you are going to get ripped of of deal with some shady person.even my wife who is not a bird person at all but always comes with us to support our daughter said wow what a great woman i am very impressed with how great she was.

i just wanted to share this great story about a really great woman in the orpington world.my daughter is 13 an has been working with orpingtons sence she was 8.she won reserve champion LF in jr's in ct show the little rhodey an boston poultry show an just won resrve english champion at congress with her blue roo scooby 4.well a few weeks ago a weasel got into her breeding coop at night an killer her champion blue roo that was her breeder an show bird for this up coming year.she was devastated woke me an my wife up a 6am crying so bad she couldn't breath telling us what she walked into when she went down to open the coops up.so we brought all her birds inside an we started traping an securing coops after 3 sleepless nights i cought the weseal.but her year was looking very bad sence that was her only realy nice blue she had left all the other champion roos she has are black.well i threw out some messages an no one had any sq blue roos hard time of year to find one.then the sweetest woman that my daughter got her orignal orpington line from pmed me an said i have a great blue for her.so we drove about 3.5 hrs up to her house an she GIVES my daughter a beuatful blue roo that she just loved yes that is right saved her whole season an didn't charge her anything for him.then she gives her a awsome deal on alot of eggs to start a new line again.my daughter was soooooooo happy as we where driving home she did not stop smiling just pure satifaction that she was back in the game.we get home an she is out with her roo in the garage talking an such.an she comes in an says dad scooby 5 is nicier then scooby 4 maybe everything happens for a rreason.what a great leason for a kid to learn.this great lady is RENIE'S PEEPS'S an she truely is my daughters gaurding angel.thans soooooooooo much an we will def be back up to have some lunch an hang out.she truely saved my daughter breeding season we could never thank her enough but shows us there really still are some great people out there.

Irene is really amazing. She has been so helpful and patient! Not surprised one bit that she did something this generous! What a great lady.

Renie , that is awesome! You really are an angel taking care of that little girl..she will never forget you'd kindness I'm sure..and she can show again..

I warn everyone about weasels..use weasel proof wires..I thought it couldn't happen to me, especially after 28 years..well it can..they come out of nowhere..

I have met my share of those. "What's wrong with that guy" people..i just ignore them..

I have a Blue Trio coming from them also.


Thank u and checked out the site but no offense but I'm not impressed with their birds at all

I want my birds to b much larger and typey. I don't show but I do enjoy watching my birds running around and am breeding for larger rounder birds with smaller combs and wattles then those and much bigger cushions and skirts. I guess u could say I am trying to exaggerate the Orp features as much as possible as that's what I personally like. Don't get me wrong.........they r very pretty birds but would b a step backward in my breeding program and goals. Some people may not agree with my breeding program and culls but then again they r not buying the feed or caring for my birds either.

I don't care about the shows and just want giant round poofballs in all the color Orps I am working with. I breed for what makes me happy.

@Jhorn91180 I just got the email from Deborah (Berrytanglefarm) today. I thought they had an unrelated line. Turns out they have Julies lines. Im still searching....

 

[rebel yell]

They r a combination of Roger Harrison's birds and Marc Sacre's breed together. Hmmm so if its the same Roger on here it looks like my birds will still b related some but still new blood

Yep Im the same one on here, I got the same line started here also, They are about 3-4 weeks old now. All blue I just cant have any luck on the blacks.

X 2 . Those birds do not look like top class EOs to me. I don't care where they came from. The first EOs I've seen with pinched tails ?Neither Roger, nor Marc have birds like these.
