Large Fowl Orpingtons - ALL varieties in Sherwood Park, AB
Large Fowl Orpingtons are the standard size version of bantam orpingtons. They are similar in every way, size aside, and are friendly, inquisitive, hardy, great layers and good broody hens.
2015 brought about the addition of large fowl orpingtons to Briarwood Poultry once again. It seems as though they are impossible to resist, and once again we found ourselves with large fowl orpington eggs in the incubator.
They average in size at about 7lbs per hen and 9-12lbs per rooster at full grown size. They are a good dual purpose bird, however do not mature as fast for the table as some of our other breeds. They are good layers of big beautiful brown eggs and overall a delight to have around.

Chocolate Mottled Orpington
This breeding flock consists of chocolate hens who are split-to-mottled, chocolate mottled, and black mottled, and a split to chocolate and mottled rooster (which means he appears black but carries the genes both for mottling and chocolate). This combination will provide chicks that are chocolate mottled, mottled, and a small chance of solid chocolate or black. If you purchase hatching eggs you should expect to hatch some chicks from each category: chocolate mottled, mottled, split to mottled, solid, in both chocolate and split to chocolate.

Silver Laced & Silver Laced Blue Orpingtons
We are happy to be working with a small flock of silver laced orpingtons. They come to us from several imported lines, and we consider them a "Project" at this stage. We will be hatching for ourselves prior to making them available, as well as working on a chocolate laced silver project!
