The IMPORTED ENGLISH Orpington Thread

Launi, although some chicks vary in the amount or vividness in the stripe, I have not noticed the Isabel Cuckoo's to be autosexing.

ahh man well I will mark them and see what happens with the different colors.

This bird was first at the Springfield Mass show a few weeks ago. these are not little stubs.





I see them a lot when judging, but mostly on non standard colors like this.

And NO DQ ? Remedial judging 101 !

I have seen supposed Ameraucanas of no recognized color, with willow legs shown at APA/ABA show and not DQ'd.

I have no idea why it was not DQd.they were easy to see on both legs. These aren't wispy little feathers. It shocked me.

Wow... that boy has foot feathers! NOT a stub or two. Wouldn't you think the owner would have plucked or shaved them?

The owner apparently didn't know they were a DQ. Pulling those would leave a some good sized holes.

Walt what color is that one? It is difficult to tell. Thanks

Nellie he's very handsome, and I love that his chest looks clear of lots of red like I've seen in a lot of other Partridge males (I checked out the updated pictures on your website.

)

Hi Jeremy, thank you. No he has no red on his chest at all,

If you breed a chocolate Orpington and a chocolate cuckoo Orpington what percentage of each will the chicks be?
