A miniature size of the Buff Orpington Standard chicken and admitted to the American Poultry Standard of Perfection in 1960, this poultry variety of the Orpington chicken breed makes for a good backyard chicken and egg production. They have a very docile temperament, withstand cold weather well and are adaptable to either confinement or free range. Though when around other breeds of chickens they will be bullied, they are not aggressive.
