Back on May 5th I posted a photo of one of our daughter's Lavendar Orpingtons, along with information about this breed of chicken. Now they are fully grown.
On May 5th I posted this image: http://pbase.com/fotabug/image/169157031 Along with that post I included this information: the Lavendar Orpingtons are a unique breed of chicken, and have quite unusual coloration as adults. Here is what the website, "Pure Poultry", http://www.purelypoultry.com/lavender-orpington-chickens-p-…), says about them: "Lavender Orpingtons are a shimmering, grayish, silver color with a definite purple tone. Orpington Chickens, in general, are big, round, fluffy chickens and could arguably be the softest of all the breeds. Combine that soft fluffiness with a shimmering lavender-gray color, and Lavender Orpingtons are chickens to behold!"
