Can some one tell me the difference between the two besides the color of thier leggs?
Buff Orf and Buff Chan
Buff Orpington and Buff Chantecler?
Yes.
Buff Orpingtons have white skin and a straight comb. BC"s have yellow skin and small cushion combs.
BO roos can weigh up to 10 lbs and hens up to 8 lbs. BC's roos weight up to 7-1/2 lbs and hens 5-1/2 lbs.
Buff Orpingtons are a heavier breed with lots of plumage making them look even bigger. They are friendly and suppose to be good at sitting on eggs and good mothers.
Buff Chantecler are a lighter weight breed than BO's but are suppose to be tolerant in cold temps, they are described as having a vigourous and rustic temperment.
We have Buff Orpingtons. They are sweet, even the roo.
I happen to have both and love them equally. The BO's are the announcers.. while the BC's are a quieter bird.
They are both friendly, as for size both breeds here are identical, the BC's have a heftier chest , while the BO's have fluffier pantiloons.
Thanks everyone.
