buff orington

Very friendly 17 week old pullets hatched 3/30, hand raised. Healthy and happy birds, just looking to downsize my flock.

A week ago I was certain that this one was a pullet but now I’m questioning…. The tail has me confused 🤔

Hello - I have a 2 year old Buff and she is currently molting. However, I can now see a lump under her vent area. It’s soft to the touch, doesn’t seem to bother her if I touch it. She isn’t comfortable being held currently because of molting so I haven’t been able to get a better feel. she is...

Located in the Laurel, Md area. Looking to re-home my rooster due to Howard County Laws and Complaints from Neighbors. If you are interested, please email me at [email protected]. Thank you. Happy Farming.

Good morning! I was wondering when did everyone’s girls start to lay? I have two Rhode island reds, two prairie bluebell easter eggers, and two light bramahas that are 16 weeks and I have a buff orpington, white leghorn, and americana easter egger that are 8 weeks. This is my first personal...

We started with 7 chicks. 5 survived. 2 are roosters that we already unfortunately had to get rid of. We only wanted ladies all along. Rooster #2 was heavily picking on Helen/Bobby when we re-homed Rooster #1. Helen/Bobby is named that way because we had suspicions early on that it might be a...

So I bought a variety of chicks in March from Rural King including what was labeled a Buff Orpington. Now, 13 weeks later, I'm almost certain she's actually a Buff Rock since she has bright yellow legs. Naturally I'd done all my research on Buff Orpingtons and there doesn't seem to be much out...

Hello chicken lovers! I'm back again looking for sexing help, I'm pretty sure I know the outcome of this one but given that this is both my boyfriend I's favorite chicken of our flock, he insists I post it to get second opinions in case I'm just being paranoid 😂 Here is our 11 week old buff...

Good morning! I have just had a salmon faverolles hen hatch out 4 chicks. The only roosters on site have been buff orpingtons. One chick is white with a little dark dot on its head, and has 4 toes and feathered feet. I suspect it is a rooster from our light brahma hen rather than the fav that...

Hi all, I only have 3 chickens about 2 weeks old. This is my first time owning chickens and as my buff grows it is bigger than my golden and silver laced wyandottes. I don't know enough about the breed so maybe this is normal but if anyone can give some advice on if I have a male or female...

My buff orphington is 1 year old and recently was sick/injured. She had a limp and was treated for peritonitis. She has been on two medications for a week and a half and stopped them two days ago. Today and a little last night we noticed her comb turning pink starting from the root. we’re not...

My friend recently got this chicken super sweet and kind but we aren’t sure if he’s a roo or not

I went to check for eggs and found one of my hens licking her beak a lot. Then, she put her head down and a little clear fluid came out. She started licking her beak again after that. She's still eating and drinking. She acts like all of the other chickens. Does she have sour crop? What should I...

I have a two year old buff Orpington named Sunny who had recently received a bad neck injury from my rooster. That issue has since gone away but now she’s acting lethargic and won’t eat or drink.... We have given her some meds but they don’t seem to be working and she seems to be getting weaker.

Hi everyone, my buff Orpington is about 5 week old, and I am having some concerns about the sex. When I first got him/her I had a feeling that it may be a rooster but I thought it was just my nerves. Where I live, roosters are prohibited so I would like to know what he/she is ASAP so I can find...

I’m planning on hatching out some chicks that are out of a white Ameraucana and two wheaten Ameraucanas, they are being covered by a buff Orpington rooster. What would eggs look like and has anyone tried this combo and have pictures of grow outs? Thanks in advance!

Ive had my two BO hens for just over a year now ! Hetty started laying four months ago and betty three months ago! Ever since the girls have turned completely demonic! I can’t cope!! All day long they make a racket, before laying, whilst laying. For four hours after laying,they’re out of...

These are my first ever chicks. The woman I got them from said they are buff Orpington, but they don’t look like any of the Orpington chicks I’ve looked at. Any insight is appreciated!!
