The IMPORTED ENGLISH Orpington Thread

[galanie]

ukorps! For those of you that got a "kick" out of Lola or LOL, here's the lucky chicken nugget. This hatch has blessed me with cinnamon gold chicken nuggets! I can't believe my luck! e This is Chip with Lola in the background. Chip is posing in every picture. Just like his father! He is a chip off the "ole Rock" One more. This one, in the background, was the only gold headed one. Chip is in the foreground.

I'm sorry. All I could say was "OMG Look at that! OMG look at that!" Not real sensible. What wonderful babies!

Where's the black chickie that everyone is posting? She's really pretty!! What size are the bantams? The blacks are beetles! (Beetle Green...very nice color sheen!)

I am 1760 posts behind. I can't keep up with this thread.

Today is the first time I've had a chance to take new pics of the Orps. They sure have grown since the last time!

The girls are 75% English and I am not sure who they originally came from (any one on here know Noriko?), 'bantam' Chocolates are from Richard. The girls are still not laying and they were just starting to turn red when I got them in July. The boys were hatched mid February.










The dark blue is my favorite. She's not very photogenic, though.

Very nice, Reyvaughn!!!! I haven't been here at all either. Too much gloom and muck this winter, and we aren't breeding anything but geese now anyway. I have one hen that we call Maaaaa. Anytime you get within a few feet of her, she groans. Nonstop. Kind of like Marge Simpson.

Love her! They are characters for sure

Tell me UKorps, What do you think of this splash rooster here as far as the Uk standard goes, (type) he is about 7-8 months old in this picture ?

I have actually been on some European sites that would hail this baby supreme! Where's the whistle smiley!
