The
Gold Laced Orpington is a striking bird with beautiful
distinct lacing. Comparatively rare, they have only been
in the uk for about 7-8 years being brought in from belgium
and germany. Such quality in these birds is very hard to
come by with only a handfull of breeders having this exhibition
quality strain.
They have lovely laid-back personalities
and can make excellent pets. They have an absolutely stunning
appearance and are an extremely popular breed They lay
approximately 190 tinted eggs per year. The hens have a
tendency to broodiness and can make excellent
mothers. |
