I love the cuckoos! Pretty boy. I have lemon, but they are no so much the English type. I am breeding it back in though. Being picky about who breeds who.
 
I purchased some black, blue, and flash chicks about 8 weeks ago. They do have couple white feather at tip of the wing. Is this normal? What is the different BBS Orpington vs. English Orpington? I think it is the same, but wouldn't hurt to ask.

Actually that's kinda of comparing apples to oranges

, BBS is only the color (blue black or splash) and English Orpington is the breed (English being the origin versus American Orpington). Hope all that makes sense

Sorry, I forgot the wing tip question. It may or may not be normal. Blacks can have white tips on their feathers till they mature then they disappear. My guess is they are probably fine and the white will go away.

Is Korfus Orpington consider English or American Orpington?
