Buff Orpingtons are a beloved heritage breed known for their beautiful golden buff feathers, gentle personalities, and excellent dual-purpose qualities. These calm, friendly birds are a favorite among families and backyard flock keepers.

Buff Orpington hens lay 180 to 250 large brown eggs per year and are known to go broody, making them great natural mothers. Their large size and full, fluffy plumage also make them a good option for meat production, especially for those seeking a traditional, multipurpose bird.

Cold-hardy, quiet, and easy to handle, Buff Orpingtons thrive in both free-range and coop settings. Their docile temperament makes them perfect for mixed flocks and beginner poultry keepers. If you're looking for a dependable, beautiful bird with a sweet disposition, the Buff Orpington is an ideal choice.

Valley Farms Hatchery has selectively bred the Buff Orpington since 2014.
