Chocolate Orpington (England)

Colonial Wattlesburg has many delights in which feathered settlers may avail themselves. None are more pleasurable than a visit to the Conpecktionary owned by Bittersweet, Semisweet, and Mr. Unsweet. It is quite the epicurean event- Mealworm cupcakes, apple pea fritters, cricket truffles, and pumpkin corn loaf are enticingly placed in the window, catching the eye of all who pass by. Who can resist just one peck?

These little bantumns and standards are the most personable chicken in the town. It’s no wonder that they started a sweet shop business, being so enticingly sweet themselves.

It is a rare sex-linked gene that gives them this unique feather color. The hens weigh 3 to 3.5 pounds. Roosters weigh 4.5 lbs. They lay a small light brown egg. Standard hens weigh 7 lbs. Roosters weigh 8-10 lbs.

Hatching eggs are sold online with a minimum of 10 hatching eggs per order.
