    Back from a long hiatus.

    My last Buff Orps died several years ago. I then developed a bad back and spent a year recovering from surgery to eliminate the spinal stenosis. Well! My weight lifting restrictions have been removed and I am ready to hatch some eggs next month. My Border Collie, Chandelle, loves the chickens...

    No but it is easier than tinkertoys. Just get some 4 inch pvc pipe, the y like I have, and put it on upside down. Use a jig saw to cut away the bottom half of the feeder.

    Cold Hardy Buff Orpingtons in HOT Oklahoma

    I need to know how all the Buff Orpington's living in Oklahoma are doing. I heard they are cold hardy but worry about my new flock and how the hot summers in Oklahoma will affect them. Any advice?

    Ah yes, I once lived in the country of Sacramento. I had two acres in North Highlands. The part of Oklahoma I live in looks like a giant San Joaquin Valley. Less than 40 miles to the East my son lives in the hills near the town of Choctaw. He is the one who has 40 Rhode Island Reds and Marans...

    Where do you live? I grew up in Wisconsin, lived in California for 18 years and then moved to Oklahoma. Oklahoma is a really laid back state and we don't take ourselves seriously, as you can probably tell.

    I have golden buff orpington eggs in my incubator. Today is day 11. More than half way there. Candling is showing my hatch rate will be good. I only need and have room for 3 pullets. I can hardly wait! The others I will take to the local chicken swap. I hope mine are as friendly as yours!
