Jubilee Orpington Chicks: A Royal Addition to Your Farm

First, the Jubilee Orpington is a majestic breed that traces its origins back to England in the late 1800s. The Cook family first presented this breed in 1897 to honor the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Victoria. Because of this royal history, poultry enthusiasts still consider them a crown jewel of the coop. In addition, people admire the breed for its fluffy, complex feather pattern.

Exquisite Appearance and Traits The intricate feathers boast a rich mahogany base with black spangles tipped in white. Furthermore, this plumage creates an illusion of a much larger size. As a result of their white legs and striking red combs, these birds stand out in any flock. However, you must be patient, as their adult colors can take up to 18 months to fully develop.

Family-Friendly Temperament In addition to their beauty, Jubilee Orpingtons possess a very friendly demeanor. Because they are less flighty than other breeds, they make an excellent choice for families with children and pets. Therefore, you can easily handle these birds without stress. Even though they weigh up to 10 pounds, they are often passive and calm.

Egg Production and Care As a dual-purpose breed, they primarily serve as excellent egg layers in the U.S. Each hen promises over 150 medium brown eggs every year. Additionally, their natural cold hardiness is a notable advantage for farmers in chilly climates. We offer healthy, vibrant chicks that can live for 8 years or more with proper care. Therefore, investing in these birds is a commitment to long-term excellence.
