Snow and cold. That’s all I can say about this week. It has gotten old, folks. Blaze is in the basement with a frostbite related comb injury, which means Sparky is taking care of the ladies- a job he rather enjoys. I ordered hatching eggs this week and am looking forward to their arrival. Learn how much fun hatching eggs can be on my Hatch-along with The Chicken Chick series HERE.
Sparky’s holding down the fort for The Big Dawg and even though he has a little frostbite, he seems to be healing more quickly than his dad, Blaze (both Black Copper Marans). Youth is likely to thank for that.
Ally McBeak (Tolbunt Polish Frizzle) found a warmish rock to occupy out of the wind. The flock only got about an hour of free-range time each day this week due to the crazy cold temperatures.
My article on chickens and obesity was published this week in Hobby Farm Home magazine. No matter how many articles I write, I always get a kick out of seeing them in a national publication.

I love your site :)
My Black Copper Marans Roo – Merrick is just now beginning to look like a Roo!! I hope that he is as handsome as Blaze and Sparky ♥ His lady loves are Marie Laveau (Black Copper Marans) Evangeline (Blue Marans) and Nougat (Splash Marans). The mini-bator would surely add to the joy of chicks from these beautiful babies!! Thank you Miss Kathy for always sharing so much information and giveaways!! ♥ ♥ ♥
We are looking to get an incubator – this would be amazing! Thanks for the chance!
I would love to have this for my kids! I have lil ones that would just love to watch this, but I have one in FFA in high school that could really use it! crossing my fingers!!
I would love to hatch some of my own this Spring
