Never got out of the 40s here today but the Orps. sure loves it, They were all running around here all day like a bunch of kids.

Roger, That is one BIG girl !

She aint grown yet, shes about 7-8 months, I think she will have good type, a little dark but the laceing is pretty good, I think she will stay.

I don't trim butts. I have found that if they good breeders I have fertile eggs. Sometimes depending on age of bird it just takes longer . My older Cock birds may wait later in Spring to do the deed right.

Evening Everyone - I do not normally cruse this thread but and really wanting to start raising Orpingtons. I really like the looks of the Black. Does anyone have or know anyone who has 100% Black Orp. Bantams for sale? I have seen some ads for some that "split to chocolate?" But I want totally black genes.
Thanks

I know for sure Marc Sarce has great bloodlines, but I am sure many other breeders active on this thread who can help you as well.

Funny thing, but real blacks don't get discussed much. Only the blacks from BBS breedings and chocolate splits. But there is an Orp. Bantam thread that I don't follow, maybe someone there knows?
