Hi Susan, welcome to BYC!

I'm glad you've read up on adding to your flock, integration can be a tricky thing but if you go slowly adding the new one you should be fine.

Feel free to ask questions always.

Nice to have you here!
 
Welcome to the Backyard chickens flock. If you put "Oregon thread," in the search box it should come up. A great way to find other chicken folks in your area.
 
Welcome to BYC, Susan. Glad you decided to join our flock. You have a nice mix of breeds. Black Australorps are my favorite standard breed. I've raised them for years (along with dozens of other breeds), and they are extremely hardy, calm and gentle, and excellent layers of large, brown eggs. If you haven't done so already, definitely check out our Learning Center at https://www.backyardchickens.com/atype/1/Learning_Center. There is loads of useful information there. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have. We are here to help in any way we can. Good luck with your flock.
