Hello

[Avat28218]

I am a new member and only in the "thinking" stages of raising my own flock. I am seriously considering starting my own small flock of chickens and have absolutely no idea how to go about it. I figured getting ideas from a group of knowledgeable folks can only improve my chances of success for a happy chicken family!

Greetings! Buff Orpingtons are a great first breed. They're generally friendly, large, fluffy and yellow, with big brown eggs.
