This group is of The O's, Bluebell and Hagrid. The O's are about 7-1/2 months old, Hagrid will be 7 months old on 01/01/20100, and Bluebell is almost 6 months old.

Take a look at Bluebell - has she not grown up to be a beautiful girl?

Absolutely gorgeous color on those blues. Love them. I must have some more of the cross of Minerva and Winston. I love the blacks too. Well I haven't seen one I didn't like yet. Matilda colored out well after the molt. good lacing.

Thanks for sharing Joy.
 
Thanks everyone !! I'm really pleased with how they are turning out. I'm loving the color of my blues, too. Definitely going to make some more Winston/Minerva babies !!!

You should get you some Red - nothing like these fluffy English Orps !!!

Hope you all have a Happy Holiday Season !!
 
I have some, 2 of my pullets came from Alabama a few generations ago lol. have a couple others but just blue Orps. I like the big fat fluffy english type. just getting started here so eventually I will have what I want
