Orpingtons are an excellent starter bird for those looking for a general-purpose chicken. Their calm, pet-like disposition makes them an ideal fit for the novice flock owner. They have a very low and broad body giving them a curvy, fluffy appearance. They are beautiful buff color and will lay lots of nice brown eggs. They make wonderful fryers and roasters.
Note: Between April 1st and October 1st, Mt. Healthy Hatcheries has a minimum shipping requirement of 3 birds (instead of the usual 10). If you order 3 chicks to ship outside of April 1st - October 1st, the order may be delayed or shipped with cockerels for warmth, as decided by Mt. Healthy Hatcheries.
