Thanks for posting that article on the Club Website. That is the one I was talking about. Very helpful.

My friend and fellow Orp breeder in England looked at the picture of the blue and said he looks like a German Langshan. How many of you have ever seen one? Not me. of course I immediately began to Google/not giggle. I found a couple of pictures and so I wonder if he might be throwback to the time of the original Langshan being used to produce black orps.

Sure looks possible doesn't it. I'd like to see what he looks like when he is grown.
