Who has raised Buff orpingtons before?

I am raising 3 buff orpington chicks at the moment and was wondering if anyone else has or is planning to or has some in their flock now!

No. I never had the space. I do have a Chocolate Orpington Bantam (English) who is the same size as my standard breeds. I never knew there was an English and American version until now.

I have one. She was purchased from a breeder who hatched her in May. You can see she's larger than my CCL.
