My Orp was an ok hen before she was eaten by a raccoon. She laid well, which is really all I really cared about, but she was the least friendly of my first three chickens. Didn't like to be...

Hi and welcome to BYC from northern Michigan ![]()
Home of the world's cutest dachshund, one crazy blue heeler, two cats,
one fat pony, and many (but not too many!) chickens

I am learning about raising chickens and am very excited. I live in a small house in CA but am moving to a bigger one and am excited because I might be able to start raising chickens. I am still learning and I really like bantam silkies. I love the frizzled cochin bantams, too and am excited to get choose more birds and eventually find a group of loving little birds to become friends with. This will be an adventure and am happy to see that there are more people who like chickens as pets.
