Cheryl they all look like pullets to me. The only one that could be iffy is the first one. How old are they?

I have Buff Orpingtons and Blue Cochins. I started raising Buff Orps because my grandmother raised them --as a tribute to her. How do I obtain English Orps? I love them!!

Thanks,

Becky

Hi Becky,

It depends on what kind of English Orps you want. Julie and I have Blue/Black/Splash. I think there are Lemon Cuckoos here in the States. Other than that, I don't know of any other kind here in the States, so you'd have to import.
