Boy, he does have a split tail! They will taste just like chicken, orps always do!

Yeah, no way to hide it!

He is built like a tank too....Oh, well at least I know he will taste good. I am letting him out with the ladies so he can have all the fun he wants before he meets his demise

[MissPrissy]

I like my orpington fried with buttermilk batter.

With a little ranch dipping sauce on the side!! lol

 

[hinkjc]

MP, can you send me that recipe?

Majestic - Looks like you've been busy hatching! Great pics and lots of yard candy.

I just read MissPrissy's post too. I want that recipe! Sounds scrumptious!

Yep, been busy hatching! No one told me that Orpingtons would become an obsession!

As you can tell from some of the pictures, I have other things growing out as well like,: bcms, cuckoo marans, bbs silkies, sebrights, ameraucanas, rocks, etc. But all I seem to care about are the orpies. Don't tell the silkies I said that, they will go on strike. You know how they are!

Edited because I am too stupid to preview.

 

[Tuffoldhen]

Oh so pretty!! I must take pics soon!!!

You mean you guys don't use buttermilk to do fried chicken? Shame!!!

Tell me how? Tuff, do you have a recipe you can share!
