A friend and I ordered some of the English Orpington Variety off of Hoover. The first batch they sent, some were definitely not Orpingtons (feathered feet). So after my friend contacted Hoover, they sent out some more.

Does this look like an Orpington? It doesn't to me but I'm still new at this!! I've raised Orpingtons since I started with chickens and it just doesn't look like any I've seen thus far. 🤷🏼‍♀️ There were 2 of these in the second shipment.

Searching online I found this picture and those two look just like mine so maybe it is a blue Orpington after all!

I'm used to them looking fatter... square from above chicks. So I'd be afraid it might be on the gangly side. But the rest looks right. Hopefully it grows into a good bird for you.
