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.
Blaze chases Sparky a couple times a day to remind him who is in charge of the backyard. They’re both Black Copper Marans. Blaze is Sparky’s dad.

Ah! Now it lets me post! Yes, I too would love to win this! If I don't, I'll purchase one before next fall when we add to our flock. NO WAY am I going the heat lamp route again! Thanks again Kathy!
I'm sorry it took so long to respond. I've been dealing with the flu in my household and then I got it. I had ordered some Rhode Island Reds, Barred Plymouth Rocks, Buff Orpington, New Hampshire reds, Delawares and some black Australorps. I can't wait till they get here :)
I can't remember if I entered this one yet or not, so here goes! And thank you for all the wonderful articles!! Nice to know someone else appreciates their coffee as much as me too
I would really love to win something from you. I follow every post and find them informative.
It all of a sudden let me comment again! Whoo hooo! Now I'm hoping to win!
