This week’s photo essay from Blazing Trails Farm feels dark as most of the week has been snowy, rainy, foggy, grey and overall, blah. Thankfully the temperatures have been above freezing most of the time, which has given the roosters a chance to recover a bit from frostbite. Please enjoy the photos and your weekend!
When it snows, the chickens will come out of the coops if I shovel, only to pace back and forth between coops. Some exercise is better than no exercise I suppose.

I am totally hooked on your website and postings! We are planning for our own first flock late this spring and the information you share has been a huge help in my chicken research. I CAN'T WAIT for the babies to arrive!!! Please keep it up! Say hello to Rachel for me ;D
Awesome. I would love to win this.
Thanks Sarah and good luck!
