Assorted means an assortment of colors will be hatching but color choices are not offered until pickup or at least until after hatching. Also if you are not particular about breed or would like faster pickup or would just like a Orpington with your order, this will be a color that is available. During checkout there will be a notes field and you can enter in a preferred color choice but there is no guarantee on it. For Orpingtons color choices could be buff, lavender, chocolate, black, splash, jubilee, mottled, silver.
