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 have followed your sage advice on all things chicken. Why not this too? Hopefully I will win this and can then "grow my own"
I would love to win this.
Absolutely love your page and everything I've been learning from you. Hoping to get chicks soon and this would be amazing to win!!! Thanks so much!
I really hope I win one of these! Eventually my buff laced brahmas will start laying, and I want to hatch eggs from them!
I would love to win this for my son's science teacher! She wants to incubate/hatch chicks for her classes. We already have the eggs and have already given 7 to a teacher at another school who got grant money to purchase your classroom package. We are more than happy to provide free eggs to these teachers because we love to help and encourage others to raise their own flocks!
