The IMPORTED ENGLISH Orpington Thread

This is a great big ole Buff girl shown by Matt Ulrich. He is a really nice fellow along with his dad.

This is a black Cock owned by Charles Logan. I sold him to him last Jan a the Lake City show and i think he is a awesome bird. He won RV both judgings

Another Matt Ulrich bird

BTW Matt took Champion Enlish with a Australorp
Another pic of my black girl

Another blue girl I showed who is to dark but her lacing which you cant tell here is superb. She is my favorite and I want to hatch lots of chicks from her. she is tired of being pretty today too and is not holding her tail up

Julie,
I am very happy for your win and your birds are as excellent as always. I know you enjoyed yourself with all the Orp breeders at the show. Again congratulations with another win. Harry And congratulations to all the other winners also.

thanks Delish
Renie she was a really big girl. I took that pic just for you. Her color was nice too. She wasn't bigger than the black or blues though. I just managed to get a good shot of her. Distance can make such a difference. The lights were not the best for shooting good pics. I am really hoping the ones I had made of my blue girls turn out good. They had a photo box made to make chicken pics. Very professional like. I couldnt get mine to pose. I should have done it early on in the morning. They were ready to go home by the time I got them made. It was dark when we got home and I left them in the cages till morning cause I know they are hungry and I am thinking of putting them in another pen so the boys don't get on them and muss their feathers.

Bryce your birds look to have good shape. Look forward to future pics.

I took a few photos. They don't do the birds justice. Well I was totally wrong on who they picked both times they judged. I though sure a American Standard bird would take it a really nice buff who I will later show a pick of but Both times it was the blues whoooo hoooo. 19 LF Orps shown.
This is a pic of one of my blue girls who got BB BV first round

This is her too. just not holding her tail up purty. She is tired of this stuff by the time I took this one. I did get her pic made in a photo box and they supposed to email it to me.

Another blue won BB and BV and REserve English on the second judging. She was a pretty blue girl shown by a lady named El from Tenn. She told me she bought the bird from Darlene Hobbs. Darlene would have to say if she has some of Joys line in her or not.

This is her girl that won BV in the blacks both judgings

Another pic of El's Blue girl. She isnt holding her tail up either at this point

Another photo of the above black girl owned by El

This is a black hen I carried and she didn't get anything. First round disqualified for stubs and I did find one after I looked again. She got a 1 on the second round but oh well. She is pretty and i will check them better next time. I brought the ones with the cleanest butts. None were really in shape to show to me since they are just finishing up their molt
This is a close up of her

This is her again

Photobucket is giving me fits tonite. I will post these and then do a few more

Hobbs got her first blacks from Christina and then she got some from Trica Pittman. She might have gotten some from Joy, I think Trica got some from Joy. We had the Oklahoma State Show this weekend. Fred and Judy Farthing from MO had the super champion of the show on a buff pullet. Best buff I ever seen. There was around 3000 total birds.
