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 the coffee theme!!! The giveaways are awesome – looking forward to winning my first one soon!! :)
I'm starting to plan my chick acquisition for the spring. Would love to say goodbye to dangerous warming lights!
Getting blue orpington chicks and some eggs (first time incubator!) and getting some ducks for the first time this spring! This giveaway would be awesome for them. Wonder if I can raise chicks and duck in the same brooder if they are the same age?
Have chicks arriving the first week of April and it would be great to have an EcoGlow.
This blog has helped me soooo much in my first year owning/raising chicks. I love all the information and eagerly await each new post. Thank you!!! And thank you for the change to win great prizes from your sponsors!
