Hi,
My son wanted a chicken for his 11th birthday, and I have always wanted chickens, so we are jumping in!
Have two Buff Orpingtons and two RIRs on hold. Just have to get the coop installed!
Thanks for all the advice~we are all very exited...well, except my husband!

Welcome to BYC!

Congrats on the soon to be new flock! You will love the Buff Orps. Very friendly birds. Sweet as honey.

Have you stopped by our learning center yet? Lots of great articles on all the aspects of keeping poultry...

I have pretty much been reading about chickens for the last 72 hours straight! LOL

Now we have changed the RIRs to Polish...did not want the RIRs bossing the Orps around too much.
