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.

Good luck to everyone! The winner will LOVE this brooder (please don't enter me! just wanted to say good luck!)
Cant remember if I commented here already for this giveaway, so here i am again :) I could definitely put this brooder to good use! I just hatched 9 babies today :)
I'd love one of these
I have so enjoyed seeing your posts come through from a friend on Facebook! Love the pictures. I am just finishing a chicken coop for a small flock. I find it is a lot more work doing a coop in SDakota weather than for a warmer climate. Feel sorry for those chicks in the SE though as they will not have winterized coops. Owners, keep them dry and out of the wind!
would love this!!
