Welcome to BYC, Jeanie. I haven't had any quiet hens. I guess my welsummer and my crested cream legbar are probably the quietest of my big girls. My bantam cochins don't make too much noise compared to the others.

Hi Jeanie, best wishes establishing a flock!

I will definitely look through Coop & Run, and I like the idea of posting photos. I would welcome opinions (I hate feeling like I don't know what I'm doing!)...

And I was thinking of a bleach or vinegar solution ahead of time -- thanks for that!

Bleach or vinegar solution is good! We use Odoban to sterilize the incubators and brooders. That stuff smells great and kills just about everything!
