The IMPORTED ENGLISH Orpington Thread

[calum_to]

Hi guys,
Just managed to stumble across your thread and had to say I'm impressed by how gorgeous your imports are (this coming from an Englishman!). Thought you might want to have a look at some of the birds we've been breeding over on this side of the pond.

Red Orpingtons

Lemon Cuckoo Orpingtons

Jubilee Orpingtons

Gold Laced Orpingtons

Cuckoo Orpingtons

And our pride and joy... our Chocolate Orpingtons

I'd love to hear what you guys think (there isn't anything like this site in the UK) and how the Orpington range is doing in the US.

Cheers!!

calum_to, gorgeous, gorgeous birds!

I especially love the Reds and the Jubilee! The Diamond Jubilee are my favorite color.

We NEED more UK type colors here in the US!

Are your Chocolates LF or bantams?

Thank you for the photographs Calum. All of those colors are beautiful. I have to admit, those gold laced birds are stunning. I love the Cuckoo and Lemon cuckoo birds, too.

Orpingtons seem to have a widespread fan base in the US, especially the Buffs.

Very nice birds calum_to!
Boy your Red cock calum_to seals the deal on who my Connorsville Poultry Show BV winning Black cockerel takes after.
Sorry about reposting this pic here. I am just happy to know who my birds are taking after. Thank you julie. DOC is doing his job!

I want some of those Reds, they look absolutely splendid.

Just box up a couple birds and ship 'em over the pond to me as a belated Christmas gift!
