Chicken Spotlight! This weeks breed is Lavender Orpington. The Lavender Orpington can be a pricier breed. Therefore, it was not a breed we were specifically looking to get. We ordered a colored egg layers assortment of eggs, and we were just lucky enough to get one. Lavender Orpington chickens are
- Known for their rare purple/blue colored feathers
- Good layers, around 150/year
- Winter hardy
- Docile, great for backyard flocks
