Thanks! Without looking thru records they are somewhere between 5-6 months old now.

Do you think I'm getting the stink eye for disturbing their outside time??

My boy says it just tooo darn hot, will someone please turn on the AC?!?

What do you mean by "English Type"?? There are a couple of people here in the US that have recently imported other bantam orp colors other than chocolate but do not think they are releasing them yet. There are some American bantam orps that do have more fluff and English type than others, I...

If I am not mistaken the amount of white/cream a chick has on it when born has to do with melanizer in that particular bird?? Black bantam orps are born the same way, some are mostly solid black, others with tons of white around the head. Being that chocolates did ultimately come from the blacks...

Hey Krista, I want to know how you do it... your sig line says mom to 7!!! I have two and that's more than I can handle. See this is how you handle the egg thing: you pack them up and send them to me, that way you never have to worry about eating them!!

Besides the fact they are bantam orps, what are they, choc splits?? Does the male have wry tail, he seems to be holding it to one side?

Don't quote me but I believe it is possible to pass light eyes along if they are from the same breeding, just don't know how many would actually pop up from the cross?? I think it's kind of like side sprigs, they can be a carrier and not show it till offspring start to develop them. Even then...

Nellie, they do look really nice. The only thing I see right off hand is they have light eyes instead of dark.

Would love to see pics as it grows. I got Gold Salmons from my gold cuckoos. I also have two beautiful boys that look like yours growing out now to work with later this year. Now back to Orp talk!!

Soo sorry to hear about your loss Rebel.

Once again I must Thank Julie for all her hard work with Orpingtons. Had a show yesterday, left my best boy at home as he is not thru with his molt. Pulled out and took one of my girls not expecting much. There were 8 LF orps and all were nice and large birds, there and 16 total in the class and...

Oh, you can keep that mess! We had 60 degree weather today with beautiful blue skies.

I hope this is alright, I know their not English but I thought I would share with you Joy. This is our first set of farm born kids, she blessed us with FOUR yesterday! Was not expecting that at all. We had a long night and have some long days in front of us but so far all is well with everyone.

Ruth you have surprised me twice, first I didn't know till recently you had orps, and now I find you have the gorgeous marans too!! I also have marans, we should catch up.

I'm with you Joy, not real happy with the new byc, very slow and complicated to maneuver. Not sure it will be appealing to newbies? Way tooo busy all over the pages too, and yes lots of scrolling just to get somewhere.

Oh Julie, thank you soo much, means a lot coming from you. The picture is great and he is looking really awesome. I am soo over joyed for Darlene, 24 orps is something to write home about. Congrats on your reserve win, you have done just an amazing job for those of us who love our orps and...

Quote: Thanks my love............ I have been on crumbles now for 2 days and I think I need to switch back over to medicated starter.......LOL. Richard, with you not feeling well how bout I just come take all those bantams off your hands to help lighten your load so you can recover.

Extremely excited to report that I have just been informed of the Lake City, Fl show results!!! A friend of mine from SC who has some of my Biggie's offspring (who are Julies lines) just won Champion English with a Black Cockerel!!! I am sooo happy for her and for my Biggie for producing...
