NEW - The Hand Book Of THE ORPINGTON CLUB OF AUSTRALIA. (Inc.)

“ORPINGTONS– The Past, The Present, The Future.”

by the Author of the highly– acclaimed “ Simply Wyandottes” & “The Complete Orpington”D.J. (Dallas) SMITH
The 2021 Handbook of The Orpington Club of Australia.
A 135page compilation of Orpington knowledge that started in earnest as a COVID lockdown project in April 2020, this publication is drawn from assembly of writers from the past and present but focussed on the Australian Orpington scene.
Importantly it gives our members access to the knowledge they might need about breeding the Orpingtons of their choice and is a wonderful guide book for beginners and experienced breeders alike.
The Club executive has determined that this book is only available to Orpington Club of Australia Financial and Junior members.
The Handbook is a limited edition will be FREE to the first 250 new and renewing members effective from 19th June 2021.
A big thank you to our Patron Dallas Smith for his wonderful contribution and commitment to this book not just in the skilful editing but his knowledge of the breed history and to my fellow editorial team of President Ross and Assistant Secretary Kate for delivering a Handbook of such quality and value that will no doubt outlive our terms of office.
