The IMPORTED ENGLISH Orpington Thread

[Lots A Cluckin]

All of the chicks below will be 10 weeks old in a few days





The blues are already starting to get really good lacing!! Unfortunately both of them are roosters...but I have some younger ones that I'm pretty sure are pullets.








And my most precious and beautiful pullet (mostly because she is the only splash pullet I have )


Look how red her face already is...and she is not even 10 weeks yet!






And finally, Lav Roo says "Mom!!! Are you done taking pictures YET?"

I thought i would share this pic of a awesome pair of true mottled orpingtons from Germany.What we are seeing here in the US is what the European orpington club calls Exchequer.http://www.orpington.nl/en/orpington-common/colours-large?album=4&gallery=124 The mottled orpington should only have white on the tips of the feathers not solid white feathers.For example the first pic is of a true mottled orpington.

It's the same gene, I think, right? I know with jubilees the amount of white they express varies.
