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.

New here and hope to learn a-lot. Just got my chicks and they are six or seven weeks old.They are in my kitchen in a large dog crate because I think it is too cold for them to go out yet . High 20's low 30's at night and 50's during the day. Brought them out today for about an hour and they did good. Am I correct in doing this? Thanks.
