I am new to chickens and will be getting 4 total. 2 Araucana and 2 Rhode Island Red. The RIR's are 6 weeks tomorrow and the Araucana are 12 weeks.

I look forward to chatting with you. Not sure I can offer any great advice, yet, but will look forward to learning.

All the Best:)
 
Wow you must be the bionic mom!

Me.....just me, my hubby and soon to be 4 chickens. I'm sure it's just the beginning of many more family members

Looks like I'm not far from you in Gervais....I'm in Eugene and totally frantic about getting my coop/run raccoon proofed before my lovely ladies arrive!

This is going to sound strange, we had possum and racoon problems when we first moved here, but once my dogs started peeing around the perimeter of our property, they all went away. If you have a dog, it might help to have them do their "business" around the coop area. Weird...I know, but honestly it keeps the critters away. We have a big Christmas tree farm behind our property line...it was always a worry to me...but so far so good.

Congrats on your new chickens. You'll love it.
