I noticed that. Blue, black, buff and white seems to be it although they mention the Jubilee in the intro. My British Standard is 10 years old though. Do the Orps in Ireland have the heavy lower fluff like the British birds that win in shows?

Some do have very thick fluff and some don't, it depends on the breeder and where the birds were sourced. I tend to prefer birds with thick fluff but a fairly upright stance. A lot of breeders breed birds very like Cochins with a low to the ground stance with a lot of cushion on the tail. Those are the birds I don't like. Birds with thin fluff are not very good though. Another problem I have seen lately is orps with incredibly flat chests, I am not liking those either.
There has been a more recent version of the book published in 2008 if anyone wants to see the standard,I have an electronic copy in I pad
