What a great thread this is! Very helpful for those of us still trying to decide what breeds to get. Seems like a lot of people love their Orpingtons and Plymouth Rocks.

Cool.

Can't go wrong with those lauralou. I have both Buff Orps and Blue Orps, in addition to my BRs. If it hadn't asked for just one favorite, I'd have put both BRs and Orps

I don't have enough experience with alot of breeds of poultry but my faves for standards are barred rocks and astralorps and the mille fleur bantams.
