The IMPORTED ENGLISH Orpington Thread

Morning Everyone!

Took photos yesterday of all the breeding pens for my new website. Thought I'd share a few of my Jubilees. They are still young as you can see

I'm not sure if this roo is 100% English. But, how is he looking now at 5 1/2 months old? Some have advised me to cull him. Not going to happen. There's English, there's American, and then there's ...well. At 5 1/2 months, he's still a baby.

He's looking good to me. Please give constructive criticism. I don't mind.

He's 5-1/2 months in these pictures? He doesn't look English, but give him a few months. The difference in their appearance at 5 months and 8 months is HUGE. Be sure to post a picture at 8 months-we can give you a much better opinion.

Roger - She is absolutely, drop-dead gorgeous

I love her type, her short back, and that nearly perfect tail. I am thinking I made a HUGE mistake by not keeping her myself

How old is she in this picture? I definitely want some eggs/chicks from her !!!

Congrats - she is just beautiful.

Roger - I can check my records to see when she was hatched if you need me to. She is going to be absolutely stunning when she is completely matured. I can't wait to see her progress. Can't wait to get some eggs !!! I'm just glad that you love them as much as you do - that is what is important to me because I know they have a good home, but it's really thanks to Winston & Clementine !!!
