Hello all.
After years of wanting chickens and having a "coop in progress," I finally committed to completing it and brought my starter flock of 10 English Orpingtons home in late April/early May.
I have two chocolate, two black mottled, two lavender, three splash and 1 chocolate cuckoo roo. They are an absolute joy to be around. I am hoping to add two blue, two jubilee and 1 chocolate cuckoo at some point. That should complete my flock.
I knew it was incumbent upon me to do everything I could to give them a safe, secure space to live. This site was so useful to me in my research and planning. I am so grateful to have had such a wonderful resource to enable me to benefit from the knowledge and experience of the members. I am happy to be here. I look forward to continuing to learn from all of you.
