Title: Buff Orpimgton Cockerel
Post by: cluckyclaire on April 15, 2009, 08:22:45 am

Anyone want / need a buff orpington cockerel. Have Only got the cockerel (only one from 6 eggs to hatch last august) and have decided  to concentrate on some of the other breeds i have and so he is no longer needed(was ginna get him so girl's). Boyfriend is threatening him with the table but as he is a beauty IMHO i though i'd see if anyone could give him a good home instead. I'm in South east kent.

Hi I also have a lovely Buff cockeral  looking for a home but have had no takers. My husband has given him to the end of the week and then he is going in the freezer !!!  :chook:

i was looking for a buff/orp cockeral last month.... settled for 6 eggs hopeing for one cockeral..... reason is these are best xs for large fowl silkies to make brilliant broodys capable of sitting on 20 eggs... harry
