Here are 2 girls sired by 2 different English Orp cock birds. The pullet on the left is 8 months old, sired by Monty. The pullet on the right is 5 months old, and sired by Max, Monty's brother, who is more extreme in type. They are both out of SOP hens, and both showing a bit of "rooster wear".

Here you go PUGBUG...

Here is Moose's 4 month old 3/4 English pullet enjoying some pumpkin,with a 5 month old 3/4 English cockerel,who is her uncle, by Monty.The Pest had to get in the photo too.


Here is Moose at 11 months. He is 1/2 English, by Monty.



These are two cockerels, 5 months old ," Greedy"and "Hefty "proud members of the "Two Tail Feathers " tribe, by Monty. I love their width and depth.

Nice girls Bryce and I have always read it the way you stated, lighter orange type was Diamond Jubilee, Mahogany is jubilee. both colors acceptable

Yes I had someone tell me once that my bird was not a jubilee because it was red and not mahogany, We have 3 Roosters/cockerels and one is a mahogany, one red and one a lighter red. I think they are all gorgeous.

Moose's saddle feathers are very long!

to be honest I am not too fond of his hackle feathers though. I love the hens shape and feather density

Moose was just coming out of a molt in this photo,and had quills on the back of his neck.Almost all the way grown in now, and he looks much better.I mentioned this on my former post of him.

My Partridge have started to lay. Now I just wait for my younger Jubilees to join in the fun.
