Those Orps are absolutely GORGEOUS... When are you going to start hatching from these guys?

 

[mgmog]

Gl is my own work from last year or so, cross of European to English or is it the other way round - lol
This year trying to get the lace back in the fluff & also to hatch a spare boy. Didnt work out that way as I hatched 40 odd boys.

Did offer to sell this girl, no takers - even for a silly price - orps arnt selling over here. So just might bung her in the show pen at the end of the year.

Milli is a egg hatch from abroad, havnt had the space to breed more.... hatched loads last year, boys are lovely.
