Did ebay pull it off? I did not see any GL eggs.

Roger,
Scratch the comment on the pullet. I'm old, and I grabbed the wrong glasses to look at these photos. Those are your fingers. DUH ?? Love rthe color on them.

cracking up over here!!!

Laugh all you want. Something is blooming here, along with the mold from all the rain, that has my eyes almost swollen shut. Wait til you're 66, and grab the wrong glasses because you couldn't see the right ones. Very frustrating. Roger has such nice birds, and takes great care of them, that I couldn't ( and shouldn't) believe my eyes.

lol sorry for laughing dragonlady, but I just can't help it!

With bantam orpingtons, what should the size comparison be to large orps, My bantams look very big to me for bantams.

What do you have ? If its Choc. bantams, The ones I have seen are a lot bigger than the blacks I have. I guess its just in the line they are out of.

I thought all those games were over, guess not. Sad, very sad.

 

[Irishhenman]

mine are black, and they are half the size of my full sided orpingtons, which is bigger than most of my ordinary large fowl hens

I just started with some accidental imported bantams that were included in a shipment. They are 10-13 weeks old and about 1/3 the size of the LF that were included in the shipment...
