WTB Blue Banta Orpington eggs?

[marie_martin]

So if I get all blacks from the eggs, which is unlikely, I will just have to order more to get blue because they won't produce blue if they are black, right?

Marie, If you get all black you can come see me I have 3 Blue Orpington Bantam baby roosters.

Oh and that Adkins I can't remember the rest that was spoken of in an earlier post. I don't believe she has any more of the birds as that is where mine came from and I believe I got the last if hers.

Oh James, I did not realize yours were bantam. Do you only have the roos now?

Thanks so much, I will definitely keep that in mind.

Marie

Yes I have them in both the standard and the bantam, I have 2 pair of adults in the Bantams. I have a blue hen with a black rooster, and then a pair of Black and I have 13 chicks from my 2 pair and a blue pullet from Kings Calls.

I guess I did not read very carefully huh? Are you selling the chicks? Or eggs?

How much for the chicks?

I will need more than these eggs I am sure.

Edited after re-reading your post and realizing how stupid I am.

Hey Marie,
No, I am not selling these chicks, these are 1 of the breeds that I am keeping. And I am trying to build them up since I only have the 2 grown pair. I was just being a good neighbor and telling you I would let you have one of my blue roosters if ya came up with all blacks.LOL just kidding I'm sure in the fall after I get through hatching and get them raised and pick out what I want to put in my breeding pens for next year I will have a few to sell, I will let you know then.

Gotta keep something in those new pens we just got through building. LOL

Ok Marie, I have got to stop reading your post...

Now I want some Blue orp egg's /chicks!! " Please make this stop" please make this stop, please make this stop....... it's not working......

 

[marie_martin]

Sorry, but it is my responsibility to spread the addiction, right.

James, thanks for letting me know. I am off my meds right now and my brain is not functioning at all. I will let you know what I get.

Right now I have blue's with blue's..........blue's with black's ....and black's with black's. The black's are the one's that have up and decided to slack on the egg laying! I have a splash roo and could put him with the black hens to get 100% blue's but, he is not the best looking bird. So I have decided to hold off on this for now.

The 2 I have are a beautiful lighter blue or maybe splash: I think when they get their "keeper" feathers though they will be blues

I think I have a boy and a girl wouldnt that be something

I love the black Orps they are awesome (slackers though

)

Just read this tread and I want on the bandwagon as well.

If anyone has Blue/Black/Splash Orp eggs there willing to sell and ship to North Central Texas, I would be interested. Please PM me with any information.
