Freezer burn

We had three inches of snow yesterday.

   

Lee didn't even bother to get out the snow plow.

   

He just drove the heavy truck up and down our shared driveway and called it a day.

   

But the chicken yard also had three inches of snow and that means they sank in up to their bodies.  And they don't have feathers on their feet or legs.  If they want to move around outside, they will get pretty cold.

   

I went out with a snow shovel and cleared a few paths.

   

   

They stay under this shelter when it is hot AND when it is cold.  But they needed a pathway cleared.

   

I have started leaving both chicken coop lights on all day and night since it started being colder.

   

After I did that we have been getting about 5 eggs a day. Every day.  If you want any eggs, let me know!!
