“I ordered female Lavender & Buff Orpingtons and Australorps- the chicks arrived exactly when expected; they were safely packed into a comfy & well- ventilated cardboard carrier. They are wonderfully healthy, happy & so beautiful! The Lavenders are just stunning! Our girls are 8 weeks old now, and are well bonded to us & to each other- they are fantastic! Thank you SO much to everyone at My Pet Chicken!!!”
“My Violet was hatched and shipped May5th and just started laying eggs 3 weeks ago. She is absolutely stunning! Far prettier than the chicken on the profile. And she is huge!! But then again, she was a very large chick and developed so quickly, she did not look like a pullet. I thought I had a roo on my hands for awhile. She was very terrified of me for a long time, but was so jealous of the attention my tame girls were getting, that she eventually warmed up to me. Now she is very friendly and loves to be picked up and petted. I just adore her!”
“Just received 4 very healthy and beautiful female lavender orpington babies. They did a such a great job keeping them warm during their travel. Thank you so much!! I am one very happy chicken mama!! Hard part now is picking names. Lol”
“Received on date promised. Received 7 as ordered. I died. Company made good. I love my 6 lavendar orpingtons. It's a lot of fun watching them grow. At two weeks old tomorrow. I think I can tell which on is the cockerel already. Thanks My Per Chicken.”
“I'm giving her 2 stars based on her looks alone. She is very pretty. BUT she is skittish and even pecks at me like a maniac if I pick her up. She runs away screaming when I come near. She is making all my other chickens scared too. I've owned an orpington before and she was the friendliest chicken ever. What is wrong with this lavender orp? I've handled her from day 1. She is just so terrified of me. I can not go near her. She is like a wild animal. I paid such a high price for her and I am so disappointed. I will probably end up giving her to my friend who has a large chicken farm. I just have a small backyard chicken flock and she is ruining it for me by making all the others crazy. She screams the sky is falling every time she sees me and the others are freaking out because of her. Also, she was like this from the day she arrived. I will order a buff orpington next and hope that one will be more true to breed in personality.”
“Tolerate children, dogs, anything. one of our two lavenders is so sweet she follows us around the garden trying to have conversations. Highly recommend.”
“Last April, I had my first batch of chicks delivered. Two of which are Lav Orphs and I love them! My "Silvia" is one of the friendliest (out of 13 birds) and comes when I call her! I have other Orpington's (2 buff and two black-Austrolorphs) and I hands down love this breed! So much so that when I ordered my second batch (coming next month) I am getting more buffs and lavenders and adding a Blue and Jubilee Orpingtons. I can't wait! Also, I love MPC-all my chicks from last year arrived healthy and cheeping. And, they are all still going strong one year later!”
“Along with 9 other chicks I got the Lavender color and she‚Äôs so beautiful! All arrived cheerfully chirping! No losses! Every baby Alive! It‚Äôs so hard to say who is who yet! But I love all the colors in the box! Like a Box of chocolates! I‚Äôm tickled pink!! I‚Äôm definitely purchasing another box of baby chicks again soon! Meanwhile I can‚Äôt wait to see this group grow up in a couple of weeks! Wish I can take a photo”
