My chickens are not happy with mother nature & all this snow .... :cd
Mine have the coop & part of the run so they are "dealing with It " lol. Not happy though because there is no free range activity - makes for unhappy fluff butts. Eggs are still coming on our end as well so super happy there. This weather is just nutsMy 5 girls aren't all that thrill either. Half the run is covered in snow! But at least they have the 2' clearance under the coop where it's dry. And they are having a good 'ol time scratching and digging under there. They still "dogpile" at night so I'm not to worried about them keeping warm. I guess I just feel lucky were are still getting 4 or 5 eggs a day from them.
Hello Oregon peeps! I am not yet an Oregonian but my husband and I are in the process of relocating from California. I am excited but a little nervous too. We are looking to buy in the Salem area. I currently have a flock of about 40 chickens. I have a breeder flock and layer flock. I am currently breeding BBS Copper Marans, BLR Wyandottes and Lavender AMs. That's just a little background info about me. I came on here though to see if anyone in the Salem area wanted to share their experiences about raising chickens in the area (pros and cons) and also just to hopefully make some friends. I am a little worried about moving somewhere that I know no one! I'm looking forward to having the time to read through this thread. Thanks in advance for any replies!

(P.S. Is it true Oregonians hate Californians?)
I hope that your move goes smoothly, Morgen. I think that the anti-Californian sentiment has faded in the last 20 years. In the 80s many Californians brought their money from the profit of homes sold in California and bought the nicest homes here sparking jealousy. It was a real problem in some areas.
What are Lavendar AMs? Americauna?
I agree,I don't think that's the case anymore! Salem is a very nice area and I hope you find your forever home here in Oregon! Welcome!![]()
