The IMPORTED ENGLISH Orpington Thread

[Adorae]

Beautiful birds. Do Bantams count? This is my Silver Birchen Chocolate Orpington Bantam. She's the same size as my 5 pound standard breeds. How large are standard English Orpingtons? They must be huge!

She is so adorable!

Anyone still active in here? Would love to see more English orp eye candy!!

What a beauty do you offer hatching eggs or know where I could get some like her? I don’t have that color ordered!!

I have some. Very limited availability. I might have more in the late fall or winter if the pullets start laying.

@ColtHandorf has quite the variety of colors and sells hatching eggs. I had a good hatch from the eggs I got from him

no decent bantam "English" orps were found.

Did you ever look into Anita Heatherly with Fawn Spring Farms?

I will admit I’ve gone over to the dark side.

Give me. lol

I've never clicked on a notification faster. Love me some poofy (preferably clean legged) gorgeous birds in both appearance and quality. This thread in general is really dangerous. Too bad I'm not doing any more LF males (with very few exceptions), or I'd have a BUNCH of English Orpingtons on the property lol

Lucky for you they come in Bantam, and I just supplied you with a breeder and FB page to contact her. lol

A US breeder. I don't think we have any bantam English Orps in the country

..... Did you click the link? She's very much located in the United States.

Yes. That is what I'm saying, she is located in the US. I'm not. Sorry if my wording made it confusing

That makes sense! lol Sorry, I did indeed misread it. You're close enough to the source that importing from the UK might not be too difficult.

I've thought about it before, mostly for aseel, but I don't even feel comfortable importing from Italy. Not yet at least. I don't have any breeder connections, and no incubator. So as you can imagine that makes importing eggs extremely hard, if not impossible. If someone does import them, I'll be one of the first to grab some lol. Or, I'll give in and get some LF birds and break my no LF males rule. I'm notorious for doing that

She is so adorable!

Thank you. The breeder is in NJ. I'd love to get more. The rooster is outstanding
