Blue Orpingtons are very calm, quiet and affectionate, and make great pets. They will typically feature slate blue feathers with dark lacing and will lay 4 to 6 large brown eggs per week. Blue Orpingtons can be broody, and make great mothers if allowed to hatch fertile eggs. Note: Blue coloration does not breed true, so chicks hatched from blue parents can be blue, black, or splash.
