Nicer Weather

I'm sorry I haven't blogged for awhile! I've been super busy working on art :)

This winter has been crazy cold and we've hit some record low temperatures. All my fur and feather babies are doing alright, but they are all a little under exercised and stir crazy.

Today, the weather warmed up enough for everyone to get outside for awhile. The hens had a nice time running around getting into trouble





Hens can get frostbite, especially hens with crops, so care needs to be taken that they are not left outside too long in really cold weather. I have found if it is colder than -10 out that I'm best to leave them locked in the garage all day. I always feel mean making them stay inside, but safety first.

Spring will be here soon and my ladies will get to go back to free ranging all day :)
