The IMPORTED ENGLISH Orpington Thread

Tonya, those boys are nice. I don't think you could get a better comb than Frost has so if size and type are what your needing to add to your project they should be very helpful. I do like Frost the best. If i was breeding blue and he was all I could choose from I would be him cause all the offspring won't throw the red in the hackles. I was so sorry when I noticed the red but am so glad he fits your bill.

Joy if I lived closer I would come help you out. Good thing you have some chickens, great excuse to get out of the house.

It was warmer here today but overcast. I hope to take a few pics tomorrow. I was busy today but got a lot done. The house is clean again and all the Christmas stuff in back in the closet. Got my oils and shea butter so I can make soap on Sat. Whooo hooo. Joy has been a bad influence on me.

I am very excited about the Chicken show in Lake City. My friend that helped me get the size in my American birds bought Imogenes flock back in July and he is showing 10 of those so Charlies offspring should be well represented. I am showing Taylor too, so here you go Winston.

Call Ducks where are you seeing the jubilee's on Greenfire's Website. I looked but all I can see is a head so I can't tell if they are fine examples or not. Could you tell me where to click and see the whole bird please?

They are from the blue roo that won bv blue at Frederick and he's from Joy. The hens are splash not the best around but hopefully these will improve what I have. Final total 6 splash and 3 blue.
