    Orpington limp

    My Buff Orpington Sasha has been limping on and off her entire life. She is almost two years old. She has never had bumble foot, and it seems to come and go. When she walks she seems to lift her leg/hip up higher than all my other chooks. Recently it has become much worse, she still runs and...

    Not what i paid for...

    Purchased a month ago, was told it was a Lemon Cuckoo Orpington and a pullet. Now I've been told no to both by others. Please help. About 6 months old. Not crowing or showing interest in any of the girls. Is this a late blooming cockerel or a masculine hen???

    Is Nugget a roo?

    Nugget is a three weeks old Buff Orpi and we're starting to have suspicions that they're a rooster (or cockerel at this point.) Is there anyway to tell this or is it too early? We were sold them as pullets but I know these local hacteries can make those mistakes. They're getting their waddles...

    Baby Daisy

    Anyone know what kind of chickie this baby is? She was labeled as "russian orph", whatever that is 🙄. The guy said Orpington, but I'm not so sure about that either 🤷🏼‍♀️

    Gender? Breed?

    Hello. I have these two chicks that were sold to me as 1 Orpington and 1 buff Sussex but I don’t think those are the correct breeds I got and I’m also worried they might be roosters any ideas? 1 is 4 and a half weeks old and the other is 3 and a half weeks old. Any opinions will help. Thanks.

    My experience with Buff Orps and Past Regrets

    I got into chickens when I was probably around 8 or 10 years old. My brother who was in high school at the time played a big part in getting baby chicks. We had so many chicks (so many!! Lol), and the majority were straight run. Well one of my favorite and most remembered birds happened to be...

    Looking to add baby Cochins, brahmas, and Orpington

    So I currently have 3 black stars and the plan is to keep them separate from the new babies because they have had a bad history with other birds. How well would Cochin Orpingtons and Brahmas mix together? Also I have the option of getting them day one or 2 or 3 weeks down the road. What would be...

    To free range or not to free range?

    Hi! I’m new here, my name is Bobbi. I am a new chicken mama to Orpingtons, Cochins, and sapphire gems. I’m working on converting an old milking barn into my coop. I’m currently in the dilemma of trying to decide if I should let my chickens free range during the day or not. My boyfriend and I...

    Help do I have a rooster Orpington?

    Hello I have 3 Orpington 3 1/2 week old chicks, 2 of them are larger in size. And have combs forming one of them looks like it’s turning red. Is it too soon to sex or do these look like roosters? Also the two I believe are roosters beaks have been changing color and I don’t know why.

    Buff Orpington or Americauna? TSC

    So I saw these chicks in the Americauna tub at my local farm store. The cashier told me they looked like buff orpingtons but maybe were put in the wrong tub... what do you guys think? They certainly look like BOrpingtons according to google images but they also look a lot like “splash”...
