Wow, you are off to the races! ChipDrop.com may get you free wood chips to help with Poo management, reduce mowing ect. O - Syt Helens IS near Portland? If you have separate Breeding Pens, I have some Cockerels to re-home, and may hatch again this month - and I don't need all the Chicks lol.

We are doing great! I signed up for chip drop 4 months ago and still keep waiting, I thought we would get some for sure after that big winter snowstorm that knocked out all kinds of trees, but still nada!
St helens is about 35 mins from Portland, fairly close! Our flock is all free range so far, although they sure do make a mess on the porch some days.... I have 4 that just hatched yesterday and 15 chicks in brooders, so I'm assuming some are going to be roos! We might be rehoming some of the roos depending on how they get along with our other fella.
I definitely have the hatching bug now that we've started
Have a great day!

I have had occaisional long waits for WoodChips too. Last one came pretty soon after donating $20 to help cover their expenses.
