Looking back at my photos from January I can’t believe how nutty it was: Doc Brown came down with a mystery illness that had me looking at her back for several days to determine whether she was still breathing. After days of hand feeding and prayer, she miraculously recovered. Blaze & Chevy got hit with frostbite which put them out of commission and in the basement Mancave where they remain with Doc until temperatures warm up. Mr. Chicken Chick and I had whirlwind weekend at the Northeastern Poultry Congress meeting so many of my amazing peeps, followed days later by a scheduled surgery that put me out of commission for a bit. Finally, we have been getting hammered with frigid temps and snow storms here in New England, including a certified blizzard last week and are now staring down the barrel of another couple of feet of snow tomorrow night! Whew! I’m exhausted just thinking about it all. I’m very much looking forward to a mostly boring February, please!

I plan on asking for one for my birthday, but thats not until august. I would love this!
We started raising chickens last year and it has become quite enjoyable not to mention how much better the eggs are but we would like this to start raising our own chicks instead of purchasing them and to me it seems the most logical and cost savings way to do it.
Getting new chicks this spring…the Ecoglow sure would keep them warm and safe!
Got my fingers crossed for the eco glow brooder!
Getting chicks this spring and this would be super helpful!
