These Gold Laced Chocolate Orpingtons are beauties!  They hold true with the friendliness, and laying capabilites of the Orpington breed, but with striking golden color with clear, well defined chocolate lacing. A rare and gorgeous color on this reliably wonderful family friendly breed. Gold Laced Orpingtons are good layers, between 160-180 pinkish brown eggs per year.  Like all Orpingtons, they can go broody.
