Welcome to the forum from a fellow Oregonian! Glad you found the site.
It sounds like you have a great place. I was also happily surprised by how friendly and personable my chickens are....originally got them for eggs, but now they are more pets than anything else. They just won me over with their funny natures.
I replied to you in my intro thread, but wasn't sure if you'd see it. So here is a copy:

Hi Toby!
Have you heard of the Oregon Poultry Swap? It sounds like a lot of fun. The next one will be Mar/Apr in Canby (I think). I saw a link to it in someone's signature, but I can't think of her name right now. Here's the URL for information though, in case you haven't come across it yet: http://www.oregonpoultryswap.com/. Maybe I'll see you there this Spring!

The Oregon Poultry Swaps are awesome. I ahve met some really great people through these swaps. The people who organize them are fantastic. Here's a link to the thread here on BYC so you guys can get to know everyone. https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=7690677#p7690677 Hope you both attend the next one in May.
I'm in WA so, welcome neighbor! Thanks so much for posting the Oregon Poultry Swap stuff. That looks good to me and I might have to take some of my 4-Hers to that too.
