The Joys of Owning Imported Orpingtons

[Cleoandclover]

Wow. Normally Orpingtons aren't my style, but these guys are magnificent . Too bad I only have enough space for banties and maybe a couple small standards.

We are taking a few English x American LF Orpington Roos with us to the Shows in Boston in Nov.. anyone interested is welcome to PM me.

Oh, boy! You know how much I love big, round boys that are huggable teddy bears

Your rooster is beautiful. I have just started raising four roosters and four hens. It is my first time with the Orpingtons. I do not have any buffs. Will the rooters get along together? I have had them since chicks, and did not know the sexes. I have the birds in my backyard. I have not had chickens for a few years and missed them. So, I am glad I have them again. These birds are so beautiful.

Welcome to the forum. Roosters that are raised together will establish pecking order and will be fine. If you want to keep all the roo's you might consider taking 3 out d/t overloading the Hens with breaking behavior on down the road or just get you some more Hens.
