Hello from Orange County NY.

I've been kicking around trying to raise some laying hens for a couple of years now. I finally took the leap and I have 15 day old chicks Buff Orpington's and Plymouth Rocks arriving on Friday. Can't wait! Just reading posts and advise on this forum has been unbelievably helpful. Thank you all. 3 dogs a turtle and 15 chickens my wife thinks I'm nuts

Enjoy all those new babies! Orpingtons are a great breed to keep as are the rocks. Both docile, gentle birds. Enjoy the forums!
