The IMPORTED ENGLISH Orpington Thread

[kathyinmo]

Lookie what I got ...... Two of my big black English Orps produced these chicks.

OK, they are not all English.

I had the 2 girls in with my Lavender Orp. I am hoping to create some Englishy looking Lavenders.

Oh Kathy, we are on the same page, I just hatched my first two English lavs this weekend as well.

Those are some adorable chicks.

I think Sandy is working on them, too. Hey, we will all have some nice English lavenders one of these days!

 

[justuschickens59]

That would be great to actually have some lavenders that look like Orpingtons !!! You'll have to keep us posted on their progress.

Sorry I didn't phone you to catch up over the weekend Joy, our "intimate Sunday brunch" ended up turning into a much bigger affair than planned... including Elementary school aged children, an egg hunt and LOTS of dishes to finish up last night...

Ok, I told Julie I would post pics of this boy...I think he is around 10 months old(will have to look at my emails). got what I could, he didn't want to face me so I could get a pic of his chest

anyone want to assess? the pic doens't help show you his size, when he gets on the ameraucana girls he is with they disappear under him

this is Rex

eating

eta- that is not his coop or pen, just rolled out some fencing so I could take a pic, didn't want any fighting with my free range ameraucana roo

He is going to be a nice size boy if he is only 10 months. Nice comb too.
