fluffy chick Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 (edited) My dad wanted a couple of chickens, my mum wouldn't let him So the next best thing was for him to buy a couple and for me to look after them. So we went to the breeders and agreed on 2 buff orps. I'm thinking I'm the winner here I'm still thinking of names I like pumpkin, honey, marigold, amber any more ideas? What do you guys think?

Daphne Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 What lovely girls Given I've just got the one buff girl, called Buffy and a cockeral called Bob (which stands for Buff Orpington Boy) I'm probably not the one to ask about names Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewis Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 My dad wants Buff Orps too! I tried to hatch him some Orp eggs last year but nothing came of them ... they're still on the list for the future! What about Pumpkin and Butternut or Squash?
