My name is Megan and this is my first experience raising chickens. I have 5 buff orpingtons (5-6 weeks old) and hope to learn lots of new information from this forum!
I love the BO's - but do study up on broodiness - I have had 3 and all 3 had totally different personalities , 2 of 3 were a little too often broody, but all such sweeties.
