Dad is a lavender, babies will carry this recessive gene for breeding..

I have 3 hens who were 2 in April and 3 hens who are almost 1 and I am yet to see any of them molt. Is this something that can be missed? I am outside with them almost every day.

Yes...you can miss a light molt....every chicken is different...i had one drop almost all her feathers at once...that was hard to miss

Well, that kinda depends on just 'where' in Oregon you are planning on moving to. Oregon has an abundance of wildlife, 50% of which are predators. Here where I live in Central Oregon we have everything from raccoons, weasels, fox (occasionally), lots of coyotes, and cougar.

Most people in Oregon build a coop AND run attached to the coop....and we build 'em strong! 1/2" hardware cloth all the way!

Willamette Valley has Coons, Skunks, lots of Hawks and occasionally Eagles, Possum, Coyote, Weasels, Rats (eat small chicks) and I am sure others I have missed.
