WHAT IS A GOLDEN BUFF CHICKEN?
By Jane Meggitt
It's quite possible you already have a golden buff chicken among your flock and don't realize it. That's because they are marketed under a variety of names by hatcheries and breeders. If you've got a Red Star, Golden Comet, Cinnamon Queen, Isa Brown or Gold Sex-Link, you've got a golden buff under one of her many pseudonyms.
Golden Buff
The golden buff isn't a recognized breed, but a hybrid cross of various types. That includes the leghorn and Rhode Island red. "Golden buff" is really a misnomer, as the hens are more reddish-brown than gold. That's one reason it goes by so many different names. The bird sold by hatcheries matures to approximately 4 pounds if female and 6 pounds if male. It's a hardy bird that does well in cold climates. While the hens are famous for their egg production, the roosters make good meat birds.
Sex-Linked
The golden buff is a sex-linked breed, so only the hens boast the buff hue. Roosters are white with light reddish-brown tones around the neck and wings and on the tail feathers. The great advantage of a sex-linked breed is that there's no wondering whether it's male or female in chickhood. It generally takes an experienced eye to tell the difference between day-old male and female chicks, but an amateur can easily tell a golden buff chick's gender.
Temperament
Because they're such friendly, calm chickens, golden buffs are a good choice for people just starting out with poultry. That's true of the roosters as well as the hens. If you want to keep a rooster—no matter what type of hen you have—a golden buff makes sense because he generally isn't aggressive with people. These quiet birds do well either free-range or in confinement.
Eggs
Golden buff hens produce large brown eggs. A typical hen lays five eggs or more a week, with an annual production of approximately 250. Pullets mature early, so they start laying at approximately 5 months of age. If you want to raise your own golden buffs, be patient. These hens don't go broody easily. That means they'll want to lay and sit on a clutch of eggs for three weeks until chicks hatch.
Orpington
Orpington chickens were developed in the town of Orpington, England of all places! During the late 1800s, William Cook wanted to create a new breed that was dual purpose, but had white skin, which the British preferred for meat. Within 10 years, Orpingtons were a favorite in both England and America, and came in a variety of colors – black, white, buff, jubilee, and spangled.
Orpingtons lay about 200 eggs per year. If you’re thinking about adding some to your flock, we suggest the Buff Orpington. They are known for being very docile – they make great pets!
