Pullet: Lavender Orpington, Shipping Week of

The Orpington's lavender or "self blue" color is rare and highly prized in the world of chickens, and we've selected our breeder flock for pure beauty. They are a large, loosely-feathered bird with an upright stance and a medium-sized single comb. Orpingtons are adored for their good nature and willingness to be handled.

Benefits of Purchasing Started Pullets

• These juvenile chicks are sexed twice, once at hatch and again at six weeks old, which reduces your chance of ending up with roosters.
• The minimum order is just 2 chicks!
