One day we bought a bucket of chicken!
Buff Orpingtons
One time years ago at our Hamilton County Fair the poultry judge was asked to
describe the correct plumage color for this variety. Taking out his gold watch
he said, "That's the color of Buff Orpingtons? And pure gold they are,
symbolic of great value and high quality. Introduced from England in the late
1800's, they became one of the most popular farm fowls in this country. These
are large, stately birds of quiet disposition. Easy to dress for the table they
are white skinned, plump, and juicy, a beautiful eating bird, Their heavy, full
plumage make them excellent winter layers, shelling out brown eggs right through
cold weather. They also make excellent setters and mothers. Baby chicks
are a soft light buff color.
