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.

Love your posts on Facebook and the blog! Keep up the great writing! I'm currently waiting for my first batch of eggs to hatch (Next Friday WOOT!)
Just ordered my first 15 chickens today from mypetchiken.com and I am soo excited! They're arriving march 3 and will need an ecoglow brooder :). It's times like these I wish time would fly! In prep for the lil' ones I'm making the tube feeders you have and putting sand in both the run and the coop.
Our guinea coop and run is ready for keets. The EcoGlow sure would help! Thank you for the opportunity.
Oh it would be so nice!
Thank you for having another give away! Getting my new babies in April, they'll need something to keep them warm. : )
