Description

The Buff or Buff Orpington was developed by the William Cook family who lived in the Orpington area of Kent, England in the early 1900s. It was developed as a multipurpose bird, because of their ability to lay good quantities of eggs, and their size makes a good roasting duck. For instance, some even claim that the buff colored feathers are easier to pluck than the white Pekin feathers.

We can not ship these ducks to Hawaii or Puerto Rico.
