Hoover's Hatchery Live English Orpington Chicken Variety pk., 10 ct.

English Orpington Variety Pack were first imported to the U.S in 1900 and have been a favorite farm-flock and exhibition chicken since. In England, their popularity sky-rocketed and breeders developed many new varieties in addition to the black, buff, blue, & white which are common in the U.S. Until very recently, none of these other color patterns had yet made their way over to the U.S. English-bred Orpingtons tend to have looser fitting feathers, shorter bodies, and shorter legs. These beautiful birds are broad across the back and have a more rounded shape compared to American-bred Orpingtons. Despite their differences, these English birds are still like the American-bred birds as they are good dual-purpose birds laying a good amount of brown eggs and have a gentle temperament. We are excited to offer the following varieties of English Orpingtons: silver, blue, chocolate, jubilee, and mottled. No color is guaranteed in the assortment.
